LIVE this Sunday, November 4th at 635pm Small Bites on Wildfire Radio with Derek away in Montreal, Quebec, we figured we’d double your pleasure and brought in studio to co-host the show QVC Guest Host, chef, and SAG-AFTRA Sag-Aftra Philadelphia actor John DiRenzo as well as Small Bites resident Vegan Food Chef Christina Martin of Cooking to Nourish for some fun and food talk with our awesome guests for our 100th show.

We are excited to be joined by Julia della Croce - Forktales cookbook author, journalist, blogger to talk about her new cookbook “Tasting Italy: A Culinary Journey” from National Geographic and America's Test Kitchen. Featuring 100 innovative, kitchen-tested recipes, 300 gorgeous color photographs, and 30 maps, this illustrated guide takes you on a captivating journey through the rich history of Italian cuisine, region by region. Rich excerpts feature the origins of celebrated cheeses, the nuances of different wine growing regions, the best farmer's markets in Venice, and more. Intriguing prose illuminates key ingredients, from olive oil and how it's made to the various pasta shapes of Northern Italy. In every region, the food experts at America's Test Kitchen bring it all home, with foolproof recipes for standout dishes as well as hidden gems. America's Test Kitchen is a 15,000-square-foot kitchen located in Boston Seaport District. It is the home of Cook's Illustrated magazine and Cook's Country magazine, the public television shows America's Test Kitchen and Cook's Country from America's Test Kitchen, and the online America's Test Kitchen Cooking School.

Her work has appeared in many publications including the New York Times, Food & Wine, National Geographic Travel and the Washington Post.

Also coming on for our 100th episode will be Joanna Saltz the editorial director of Delish.com to talk about new cookbook “Delish: Eat Like Every Day’s the Weekend” from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Delish is the fastest-growing food media brand on the internet. They’ve carved a unique niche in the food landscape because the editors are food-lovers first, and home cooks second – not professional chefs. Their how-to food videos have garnered up to 15 billion views! Delish.com speaks to food lovers who don’t fancy themselves chefs—and they do it through helpful, shareable recipes that are as fun to watch as they are to make. Now, they’ve crammed all of that insanity and entertainment into their first-ever cookbook. Inside, you’ll find more than 275 recipes and ideas that are meant to be devoured, not perfected. Joanna Saltz was previously the executive editor of Food Network Magazine and Seventeen Magazine, and is a long-time Diet Coke addict. Sounds like fun to us!

Last, but certainly not least, we are happy to welcome back on the show Wildfire Radio's Small Bites Live with Tracey Medeiros who is the author of “The Vermont Non-GMO Cookbook: 125 Organic and Farm-to-Fork Recipes from the Green Mountain State” from Skyhorse Publishing, Inc., and it is a 2018 The Readable Feast Cookbook Awards Finalist.
