Msgr Jamie Gigantiello encourages families everywhere to bring back the old tradition of the shared family meal.
But for Gigantiello, cooking is no mere holy hobby. Before answering a call to the Church decades ago, the 59-year-old graduated from the country’s top cooking school. “The dinner table, and food, has always been a source of unity. These are life’s most important ingredients: faith, family, friends and food. That’s what I want to stress in my ministry as a priest.”Featured in its pages are the Msgr’s personal recipes — apple-ricotta pancakes being one of his favourites — as well as famed dishes from around New York City.
For Gigantiello, the love of cooking came early. Growing up in Long Island City, he has vivid memories of life revolving around Italian food.In high school, he got a job with a caterer who lived across the street — and the gig led to him attending the Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York.
Following another job as a restaurant manager and maître d’ at the InterContinental, the Msgr’s other interest — the Church — eventually won out. He officially traded pots and pans for pastoral life upon entering the seminary in 1990.
