I am Italian-American. My wife is not. My wife makes Italian food on occasion and she does her best, but she never makes sauce from scratch and her food has never really compared to the sauce my mother used to make or the sauce I can make when I cook. We have a 9-month-old baby and we just hired a new nanny to help us out a couple days a week. This new nanny is Italian-American and because our baby daughter had eye surgery today, she cooked pasta and sauce for us to eat for dinner to help us out.
What if it is really good? What do I say? Do I say nothing? What if I am specifically asked a direct question about the quality of the food? This is a minefield.
