The Magic of Carta Fata

Carta Fata, often called magic paper, is a professional cooking film used to seal ingredients and cook them in their own aromatic steam. The result is clean flavor, preserved moisture, beautiful fragrance, and a dramatic presentation when opened at the table.

Chef David Giani uses this technique to bring modern Italian execution together with Tuscan sensibility — simple ingredients, controlled heat, and elegant service.
