Crostata With Food Stylist Victoria Granof

Today’s guest is Victoria Granof—the food stylist, creative director, and visionary behind some of the most beautiful cookbook photos and food campaigns around. Victoria joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about her career, from her classical culinary training to working on projects for Vogue, Bon Appétit, and The New York Times, and her book, Sicily, My Sweet: Love Notes to an Island, with Recipes for Cakes, Cookies, Puddings, and Preserves.

Victoria also opens up about her deep love for Sicily and the influence her Italian heritage has on her cooking and baking. Plus, she walks us through the Crostata Capricciosa recipe from her book, including four different fillings: chocolate custard, sweetened ricotta, pastry cream, and sun-cooked peach preserves.
