Welcome to Secret Breakfast

An exclusive newsletter, the best place to start your day and ask a stranger: "What was supposed to come home, then?"
Hi there!

Imagine you bought a house.

What's the first thing you'll cook once there? Would that be just for you or for your loved ones?

Feel free to write back. I'm collecting ideas.

THE BEST QUOTE WE'LL READ TODAY
Food is all those substances which, submitted to the action of the stomach, can be assimilated or changed into life by digestion, and can thus repair the losses which the human body suffers through the act of living.
→   Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste, quoted in The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake by Aimee Bender (🇮🇹 Italian Edition)
LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY?
SEE YOU IN THE SQUARE
Every now and then, Magnum agency sells small square prints by its famous photographers. This one is by Paolo Pellegrin: "a plume of fireworks surrounds a reveler at the Parrandas, a December festival in the colonial town of Remedios, near Cuba’s north coast. Each year, two barrios compete to stage the most impressive display. Remedios, Cuba, 2011".

Take a look at the others on sale till Sunday. I'm not ADVing here, just letting you know you're a click away from great signed pictures (sometimes I nail a small gift for a friend or for myself).
A BOOK FULL OF CANDOR

Wear your whites
★★★

When a see the same book a couple of times, I "save it for later". This one is by the Muji art director. It's about things white and about why this non-color is so important for us. Bone, milk, paper, snow, walls, sheep, rice bowls... you get it.

RANDOM ACTS OF HUNGER
This is a space where I share some food (un)related stuff of my week 

🏡 5 meals to cook in your first home (★recipes)☝🏻Ok, some kitchens are so obsessed with the right way of folding a cleaning cloth, that someone thought to have that tattooed. 📚 11,554 free books about cooking and home economics, for vintage fetishists  🇲🇽 Salted Margarita Bars, because they exist and bad tequila can have a sweeter second life (★recipe) 🐟 I disappointed my friend Marco last week, but he asked for quick protein delicacies and here it is one: Tuna tofu miso mini burgers (★recipe and you can skip the tofu and use paneer or primo sale cheese) 🧂 Luciano Vizza has a food newsletter called Salt Sear Savor, in his words "a free weekly email highlighting cooking techniques, ingredients, and lessons that will make you a better cook". You can love both of us. 🚀 I'm obsessed not with Space, but with this photographic cliché: "Sexy women riding Sir Richard Branson", like her and her

Storytelling, if you haven't noticed, is already the "now" of the food world. What will be the future, then?
