Josephine Cosentino came to the United States in 1930. A natural cook, she never used recipes, but would lay out all her ingredients and explain how a dish was made.
Fabulous Favorites: Grandma Cosentino always had plans when she picked a peck of peppers. “She cooked all the time and she was a fabulous cook,” said her daughter-in-law Margaret Cosentino of Amsterdam. A spicy, stuffed bell pepper was just one of Josephine’s kitchen accomplishments.
