Hi Friends,
Today is a really big day for me, and I’m so happy to finally say this:
Welcome to Valerie’s Place.
This is something I’ve wanted to create for a long time. A place that feels personal. A place where food, stories, laughter, curiosity, and connection all live together. A place where I get to show up as myself and where you’re invited to do the same.
Inside Valerie’s Place, you’ll find brand-new shows, new recipes I’ve never filmed before, a book club, live cook-alongs, and real-time moments where we get to be together, cooking, talking, learning and lots of times laughing at our mistakes.
Plus, coming soon you’ll be able download our app directly to your phone via the Apple or Google Play App Stores as well as watch over 160 episodes of Valerie’s Home Cooking. Also, all my recipes will be available and searchable on Valerie’s Place, so you can actually use them in your own kitchen.
To celebrate our launch, I wanted to make it easy for everyone to join:
If you pre-order my new book Getting Naked your first month of the VP Preferred tier is free.

Because cooking together is my favorite way to connect, I want to personally invite you to our first live cook-along!

This Friday, February 27 at 6pm ET / 5pm CT, I’ll be cooking live on Now We’re Cooking. If you’re a VP Preferred or VP VIP member, you’ll be able to watch, comment, ask questions, and cook along with me in real time exclusively on Valerie’s Place.

We’ll be making Spicy Arrabiata Penne, so if you want to cook with me, make sure to subscribe today and grab these ingredients before Friday:
INGREDIENTS:
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound penne rigate (penne pasta with ridges)
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
One 26.42-ounce container chopped tomatoes, such as Pomi
1/2 teaspoon red chile flakes
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
6 leaves fresh basil, chopped, plus more for garnish
Valerie’s Place isn’t just a platform. It’s a community. It’s a place where we can slow down, be ourselves, and share the things that really matter.
I’m so grateful you’re here, and I can’t wait to cook with you.
XOXO,
Valerie 💛
Valerie Bertinelli
