This week’s Regional Italian dish will take us back to the region of Friuli – Venezia Giulia, Italy’s most North-Eastern region that borders with Austria and Slovenia. As I have already said in my post about Maiale al Latte – Purcit tal Lat, it is a region that puts together the historically-geographical region of Friuli…
OLIVE ALL’ASCOLANA
This has always been one of my favourite antipasti, perfect along a good glass of chilled white wine while waiting to serve dinner. I have never seen it here in Sydney and I was looking for the perfect occasion to try and make it at home. And what better occasion than my series on Regional…
PASTA CON FAGIOLI BORLOTTI – PASTA IN A BORLOTTI BEAN SOUP
Today I want to share with you the recipe of my favourite soup ever: pasta with beans, or pasta e fagioli as we say in Italian. Whenever I make it, I go back in time. When I was a child, my mom would make it often during the cold winters in Milano and it is…
FARINATA DI CECI
This week I want to take you all to Liguria for my weekly Regional Italian dish. Liguria is a coastal region in North-western Italy famous for its seaside, colourful villages and delicious food. Who hasn’t heard of Cinque Terre or Portofino and who hasn’t eaten pesto or focaccia at least once? Unfortunately this area has also been hit…
PASTA WITH SAUSAGE, ARTICHOKES AND SAFFRON
We all love sausage in our family. When I say sausage I am referring to the Italian style sausage made of pure pork. I am lucky enough to find some good quality Italian style sausage in Sydney, nonetheless I often make it at home from scratch, as nothing beats home-made things (I used my home-made…
MAIALE AL LATTE – PURCIT TAL LAT
This week’s Regional Italian recipe takes us to Friuli – Venezia Giulia, Italy’s most North-Eastern region that borders with Austria and Slovenia. This region has been a part of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire for many years and thus has many cultural and culinary similarities with the other regions and Nations of the area. It is a region that…
HAM AND CHEESE SOFFICINI
After moving to Australia I haven’t been able to eat many of the dishes I grew up with as they simply do not exist. If you have ever moved internationally, you will know the feeling… At the beginning you do not miss the food you left behind as you are too busy discovering all the…
STRAWBERRY RISOTTO
As Divya from Flavour Fiesta reminded us with her beautiful guest post about Rosewater, Cardamom and Pistachio Cake, October has been Breast Cancer Awareness month. So, I thought there couldn’t be a better way to conclude this month than by posting my Strawberry Risotto: pink risotto for the cause! Strawberry risotto is a savoury dish. …
PASTA CON I BROCCOLI ARRIMINATI – PASTA CHI VRUOCCULI ARRIMINATI
As I have announced in my Vitello Tonnato post, I have decided to dedicate one post a week to Italian cooking, focussing each time on a different region. There are so many fantastic traditional recipes in Italy that it can be a daunting job to choose from them, but I am having lots of fun…
VITEL TONNÉ – VITELLO TONNATO
If you follow me regularly, you will probably know that I started writing this blog with the intention of keeping my Italian culinary traditions alive while living abroad. I LOVE Italian cuisine and even though I cook (and blog about) all kinds of food, my to go to food is always Italian. Living abroad, I…
SICILIAN CANNOLI – CANNOLI SICILIANI
This is the recipe of cannoli (well, my family’s recipe!). It’s a traditional dish from Sicily and it requires very specific ingredients that are sometimes hard to find abroad… there are many Sicilian migrants here, so l am lucky enough to find almost anything. If you can’t find ricotta cheese, you can try and substitute…
