Italy: Families receive food assistance from Worldchefs members amid deadly floods

Amid catastrophic flooding in Northern Italy, Worldchefs’ member Federazione Italiana Cuochi (FIC) and World Chefs Without Borders provide thousands of displaced people with food and comfort.
Catastrophic flooding in Northern Italy has displaced thousands and upended livelihoods. Worldchefs member FIC is on the ground providing emergency food relief to flood-stricken communities.
Catastrophic flooding in Northern Italy has displaced thousands and upended livelihoods. Worldchefs member FIC is on the ground providing emergency food relief to flood-stricken communities.

Flooding in Northern Italy has killed 15 people and displaced more than 36,000. Worldchefs’ member FIC has responded with emergency food relief, delivering solidarity and food assistance to those in need.

In Emilia-Romagna, dozens of chefs from the FIC Solidarity and Emergency Department (DSEFIC) have worked around the clock to provide hot meals to those whose lives have been upended by the deadly floods.

FIC volunteer chefs prepare hot meals in emergency kitchens in Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region.

“Since May 19, our teams of emergency cooks have been on the field in the cities of Imola and Riolo Terme to prepare meals for the population and rescuers,” says Roberto Rosati, DSE President and World Chefs Without Borders Committee Member. “To date we have produced almost 12,000 complete meals.” Worldchefs Without Borders provided 4,000 euro to help fund the food relief effort.

On the frontlines of the climate crisis

DSEFIC’s work on the ground is helping flood-hit families get back on their feet by providing immediate food assistance.

The Emilia-Romagna region of northern Italy is one of the country’s agricultural hubs. The flooding has inundated farmlands and destroyed produce, decimating a region known as the “Fruit Valley”. Greenhouses and stables have also been affected, resulting in the loss of animals. More than 5,000 farms have been submerged, including fields of corn and grain, compounding on record inflation and soaring food prices.

Livelihoods, croplands, and homes have been devastated by the catastrophic flooding, a region where researchers warn will see more violent and frequent storms due to the accelerating climate crisis.

The floods followed years of severe drought, which compacted the soil and reduced its ability to absorb rainfall. Rising temperatures have intensified droughts, leading to soil dryness and changes in permeability. With extreme amounts of rainfall in a short period, runoff is exacerbated, causing rivers to overflow and alter their course. Over 20 rivers in the region have burst their banks, triggering numerous landslides.

Emilia Romagna’s President, Stefano Bonaccini, likened the devastation to a “new earthquake,” just days before the anniversary of a deadly earthquake that struck the region in 2012.

Experts warn that flood-battered Northern Italy will see more violent and frequent storms, linking the disaster to the accelerating climate crisis.
The Worldchefs community stands in solidarity

DSEFIC has been working tirelessly to provide meals for the affected population. To ensure that their disaster response program can effectively assist affected communities, DSEFIC is seeking donations to enhance their kitchen operations in Riolo and Imola.

The support and contributions of individuals and organizations will play a crucial role in helping the affected regions recover from this tragic event.

Donations can be made via bank transfer using the following bank details:

Bank: Monte dei Paschi di Siena Account
Name: C/C in the name of the FIC Solidarity and Emergencies Department
IBAN: IT64Z0103003213000063363833
SWIFT: PASCITM1R13

Arroz Campero

Arroz Campero

A traditional way for cooking rice in the Spanish countryside.
By Luis Soto Villalta.

 History 

Arroz Campero is a traditional dish hailing from the rural regions of Spain, where it has been cooked for generations over a woodfire since the Medieval times. This rustic dish typically consists of rice cooked in a large pot along with a variety of meats and vegetables, giving it a hearty and flavorful profile.

The process of cooking over a woodfire is an art in itself. It requires a certain level of expertise and patience to cook the rice to perfection without overcooking or burning it. The woodfire adds a smoky flavor to the dish that cannot be replicated by any other cooking method.

The ingredients used vary depending on the region and personal preference. However, the most common ingredients include chicken, pork, bell peppers, onions, garlic, and tomatoes. The meats are typically cooked first in the pot, followed by the vegetables and rice. Once everything is added, the pot is covered and left to cook over the woodfire until the rice is tender and fluffy.

The dish is often served with a simple side salad or some crusty bread. Arroz Campero is not only delicious but also incredibly filling and nutritious, making it a popular choice for large family gatherings and special occasions.

The woodfire cooking method is slowly disappearing in modern times, with many opting for more convenient and modern cooking methods. However, those who still cook it over a woodfire insist that it is the only way to achieve the authentic smoky flavor and rustic charm that has made this dish a staple of Spanish cuisine in the countryside.

Ingredients for 6 Servings
  • 600g of rice.
  • 1 kg of pork ribs.
  • 1 chicken, cut into pieces.
  • 3 onions, chopped.
  • 3 tomatoes, chopped.
  • 2 green bell peppers, chopped.
  • 2 red bell peppers, chopped.
  • 2 teaspoons of sweet paprika.
  • A pinch of saffron.
  • 2,4 liters of water.
  • Salt and pepper.
  • Olive oil.
Instructions 

To control the woodfire and avoid burning the rice, you can follow some tips: using well dry hard wood, using a metal grate, controlling the embers with a poker, and adding or removing wood to control the boiling, making sure the water doesn’t stop boiling but doesn’t boil excessively (150-175ºC), avoiding stirring the rice too much but making sure it doesn’t burn on the bottom.

Cooking:
  1. Start by lighting a fire with wood in a large pot or paella pan, allowing it to burn down to embers.
  2. Season the pork ribs and chicken with salt and pepper and brown them in the pot with some olive oil.
  3. Remove the meats from the pot and set them aside.
  4. Add the chopped onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers to the pot and cook until the vegetables are soft and lightly browned.
  5. Stir in the paprika and saffron and cook for a few more minutes.
  6. Add the rice to the pot and stir to coat it in the vegetable mixture.
  7. Pour in the water, and return the meats to the pot, pushing them down into the rice mixture.
  8. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. If the water dries up while the rice is still hard, you can add more water, but must be hot to avoid interrupting the boiling process.
  9. Remove the pot from the heat and allow it to rest for a few minutes.
  10. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley and lemon if desired.

About the Author

Luis Soto Villalta

My mother and grandfather introduced me to professional cooking. As people say in Spain: I learned to cook from the bottom of my mother’s skirt. The tradition in the family comes from my grandfather when he founded the first restaurant of the family in 1916. I have later studied both professional cooking and hotel management. I focused my career on kitchen and accommodation management, especially in the rural environment and the wilderness.

In Memory of Paddy Brady 

In Memory of Paddy Brady 

Dear members of the Panel of Chefs of Ireland, Worldchefs and colleagues,


It is with great sadness that we convey the news that our dear friend and colleague Paddy Brady passed away peacefully on Tuesday, 2 May, surrounded by his loving family.

Paddy was a lifelong member of the Panel of Chefs and played a pivotal role in the development and growth of the organization.   He held many senior positions including Branch Secretary,   National Secretary, National President, and more recently Vice President and Board member. Paddy devoted so much of his time and commitment to many projects, including the Chef Ireland Culinary Competitions, working with sponsors and other organizations to promote the work and profile of chefs throughout Ireland. He loved encouraging and supporting competitors who participated in the various competitions that were held across the country and beyond. Paddy was a great supporter of Worldchefs in their role of promoting and enhancing the profile of chefs across the globe, and he made many friends when attending congresses and meetings.

Paddy trained and worked in some of Irelands top hotels, including the Shelbourne and Berkley Court, also working and teaching abroad in Switzerland, before returning home to Ireland and taking up the position of Executive Chef at the Westbury Hotel, where he spent more than 20 years. He was there to witness the Hotel being recognised as one of the best hotels in the world, an achievement and accolade  that made him and his team so proud. 

He hosted many top chefs from abroad when they participated in their annual International Culinary weeks showcasing some of the world’s finest cuisines. 

Paddy was instrumental in creating an in-house trainee programme for his apprentice chefs, many of whom have gone on to establish their own distinguished careers in both hospitality and education. Paddy was highly respected both as an individual and in his professionalism by all who knew him and who were fortunate to have worked with him, He would often remark at how proud he was to see and hear of their successes.

While Paddy will be remembered for his lifelong commitment and dedication to our craft, he will also be remembered as a true Gentleman, Chef and friend. On behalf of the Board of Directors and members, we extend our deepest sympathy to his wife Helen and family, and his wide circle of friends.  Our thoughts are with you at this difficult time in dealing with his enormous loss.
