Biography
Filomena from Castelleone, Sicily. She is married to Giacomo Ortolano, who works as a farmer. He disowned his son Lino Ortolano for his life choices, as he did not support Lino's decisions to leave the family farm to study, work as a chef and marry an American. He refuses to see Lino, even on his wedding day, which Filomena and their daughter, Biagia, disagree with.

Throughout From Scratch
Filomena was angry at her husband for forcing her and her daughter, Biagia, to miss Lino's wedding. One night, she denied her husband pasta sauce and contemplated putting a pebble into his food. She later confessed these sins at a church.

She and Biagia later secretly met with Lino and Amy.
