34 Grandmothers Around The World And What They Cook

    Who run the world? Grams.

    1. Italy: Swiss chard and ricotta ravioli with meat sauce

    This wonderful photography project comes from Gabriele Galimberte, who works with Riverboom, a Swiss publishing group of journalists and photographers. From the website's introduction:

    Gabriele Galimberti pays homage to all the grandmothers in the world and to their love for good cooking, starting from his own very Tuscan grandmother Marisa who, before the departure for his tour around the world by couchsurfing, took care to prepare her renowned "ravioli ripieni." She was not so concerned about the possible risks or mishaps her grandson might face in his adventurous travelling worldwide, but her major concern was, "what will he eat"?

    You can see the whole "Delicatessen with love" collection (including recipes and written portraits of each grandmother) on Galimberti's website. H/t to PinkRobotBoogaloo for sharing.
