Watch Benny Blanco & Selena Gomez Cook an Italian Birthday Dinner Together

Selena Gomez celebrated another trip around the sun with plenty of love and a homemade Italian feast.

On Wednesday (July 22), Benny Blanco posted an intimate Reel documenting the couple cooking Gomez’s birthday dinner together, opening the video with a simple statement from Blanco: “Let’s make an Italian feast for my wife’s birthday.”

The newlyweds spend the video in the kitchen, preparing each course. They began by making fresh pasta dough, mixing together the ingredients before rolling, cutting and cooking the noodles. Once the meal was ready, Gomez tried a forkful of pasta and smiled with an unmistakable look of pleasure and approval. From there, the pair moved on to roasted squash blossoms stuffed with an herbed ricotta filling. Gomez helped pipe the cheese mixture into each blossom before the couple arranged them for roasting with olive oil, lemon and fresh herbs.

The centerpiece of the meal was a homemade eggplant parmesan, with Blanco and Gomez layering fried eggplant, tomato sauce and cheese before baking the Italian dish until bubbly and golden. Blanco noted that the eggplant parmesan is best served atop a slice of bread.

The birthday cooking took place the day of Gomez celebrating turning 34 on July 22. The singer and actress and Blanco, who collaborated on their joint album I Said I Love You First earlier this year (which debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200), have continued giving fans peeks into their lovely life together since tying the knot, with their latest kitchen video diary proving to be equally affectionate and delicious.
