Just to Pasta Time – Details, episodes & analysis

I'm Alex Ianniello, cook, food photographer and now podcast host! I live for mealtimes like most people, but it's not just the end result that I'm interested in. The recipe, the cook behind the dish, all aspects of putting food on the table interest and inspire me. During my teens, I had my first encounter with adversity. I suffered a brain injury following a bad car accident, forcing me to drop out of education and focus on getting better both physically and mentally. Fast forward ten years and I've now graduated from culinary school but injuries have kept me out of professional kitchens and so I explore my passion in other ways through writing, photography and building a community around food. Now I'm here with a space to share stories, a place where we can talk about overcoming adversity. Food and cooking have helped me enormously through tough times, now I want to hear what's helped others. Sit down with me and some familiar faces as we explore food, community, identity, purpose and success. In each episode, we'll be covering the past, the present and the future as we reflect, show gratitude and try to find that secret ingredient to dealing with life's challenges. So if you're feeling ‘cannelloni’, come join us for an hour ‘orzo’ on Just to Pasta Time. Find me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justtopastatime/
