'Watching Massimo Bottura’s “Kitchen Quarantine” on Instagram is giving me the family drama I crave.'
!” chef Massimo Bottura shouts through the phone in greeting. It’s 2:00 p.m. in Brooklyn and I’m hunched over my new “home office” . But it’s 8:00 p.m. in Modena, where Bottura and his family are getting ready for dinner.
The chef is one of countless people who have taken to live streaming from their self-isolation, cooking, exercising, or answering questions on their quarantine skincare routines. But he’s the only one I actually care to watch. Whereseek to educate, or instruct, or inform , Bottura is simply allowing us to look over his shoulder. There are no fancy knife skills demonstrated. No set ingredient list. No meticulously laid instructions. It’s just Bottura doing his thing.
Living across the country means I rarely experience this nightly ritual anymore. But I’ve been missing it more than ever as my own tiny kitchen has been forcibly closed to the friends and neighbors who typically pass through. Seeing Bottura and his family , preparing to sit down together every night provides a kind of comfort I didn’t think I could get from yet another live stream.
