About us

Food is love made visible

Deliciously Cooking is the daily recipe arm of Deliciously Fine Foods, a niche supplier of premium Italian ingredients with direct relationships with family-run producers across Italy.

Our story

Since 2016, we have been sourcing the finest artisanal products from small Italian producers - aged cheeses, cured meats, farm-to-table preserves, and handmade pasta. We know these ingredients intimately because we work directly with the families who make them.

Deliciously Cooking was born from a simple idea: what if we shared not just the ingredients, but the knowledge of how to use them? One recipe a day, written with the care and precision of a professional kitchen, but designed for confident home cooking.

What makes us different

Authenticity first

Every recipe is rooted in genuine Italian and Mediterranean tradition. No shortcuts, no substitutes, no compromise.

Obsessive detail

We include precise timings, technique explanations, and visual cues for every single step. Nothing is left to guesswork.

Ingredient knowledge

We source and supply these ingredients ourselves. We know what makes a great olive oil, how to judge cheese ripeness, and which pasta shape suits which sauce.

Minimally processed

Our philosophy is simple: real food, made properly, with ingredients you can pronounce. No additives, no colouring, no nonsense.

The team

We are a small, passionate team based in London, operating from New Covent Garden Market. Led by Luigi de Simone Niquesa, we combine over 15 years of experience in Italian food sourcing with a deep love for teaching others to cook well.
