Overview
Chef Gino D'Acampo begins his Italian journey on the stunning Amalfi Coast. He visits the pretty town of Amalfi, a favourite holiday destination from his childhood, which is still popular with tourists today. Amalfi is world-famous for its lemons and Gino explores a secluded citrus grove, high on the cliffs above the town. Here, he picks and tastes Amalfi's legendary lemons with a family who own the grove. Motivated by the breathtaking location, Gino whips up a creamy lemon mousse topped with crushed amaretti biscuits - using Amalfi's unique fruit and the local citrus liqueur, limoncello.
