Today I am going to share with you one of my Regional Italian recipes! And this time I will take you all to the beautiful island of Sardinia or, as we say, Sardegna. Sardinia is a popular holiday destination for people who love the seaside. In fact it has some of the best beaches and…
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Who doesn’t love Chocolate Chip Cookies?? I fell in love with them at 17, when I visited the States for the first time… I had never eaten them before. Cookies in Italy were different: crunchy and delicious, but different. The Chocolate Chip Cookies I had in the US were chewy and sugary and oh so…
Margarita Chicken Wings
Crispy Margarita Chicken Wings coated in a citrusy lime glaze with a light sweetness and caramelised edges. Juicy inside with a slightly sticky coating, great for sharing.

Today’s flavour combination is yet another winner: orchid and matcha! Yum! Don’t these macarons sound exotic? They really are. I am sure you…
Pomegranate Risotto
As you know, autumn has come to the Southern hemisphere. I can’t lie… I don’t mind it. I welcome the fresher air and the leaves changing colour on the trees. It is a beautiful season. And I LOVE autumn food: mushrooms, chestnuts, quince… pomegranates. In fact, pomegranates always put a smile on my face: I…
Taleggio and Hazelnut Tarts
Cheese is probably my favourite food. I love to eat it plain, but I also enjoy cooking with it. One of the things I miss the most about Italy is the variety of cheese and cold meats available at the local supermarket. We are very spoilt for choice. We don’t only find Italian products, but…
Sticky Ginger Marmalade Tea Loaf
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Baccalà alla Fiorentina
I have always been a big fan of baccalà – aka salted cod. It is quite a common ingredient in Italian cooking and, strangely enough, it is loved and cooked all over the country, from the Northern regions to the Southern end, islands included. I have already shared the recipes of my grandmother’s Baccalà Fritters and…

Home-made Puff Pastry
I am very excited about today’s recipe, as I will be showing you how to make puff pastry from scratch! For a while I have been debating whether or not to publish it on a separate post or just add it to my Techniques page where I share other basic dough recipes. The reason is that,…

I must admit that while I LOVE my vegetables and I have grown up in a family where red meat…
Olive and Walnut Mini Madeleines
Today I want to share with you the recipe for a great appetiser: mini savoury madeleines made with walnuts and olives. I saw these in an Italian food magazine and I just HAD to make them. Actually, I made these for Christmas and served them as one of our appetisers, with blue cheese and honey. …
Bomboloni alla Crema
Soft dough, creamy filling, and a light sugar coat make Bomboloni alla Crema such a satisfying treat. Whip up a batch and taste how good homemade can be. Happy Mardi Gras, everyone!

Crumbly, nutty, and lightly buttery, this Sbrisolona brings texture and warm flavour together in a way that feels cosy and irresistibly crunchy.
Linguine with Potatoes
Today’s recipe is not my own. It’s actually my mother’s. It is one of her favourite pasta sauces and she made it for all of us when visiting from Italy. Usually, as a rule of thumb, Italians do not eat other carbs together with pasta, but this is a delicious exception. I often say that…
Peanut Butter Ice Cream
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Spanakopita
The February Daring Cooks‘ Challenge was hosted by Audax of Audax Artifex. The challenge brought us to Greece with a delicious, flaky spanakopita – a spinach pie in a phyllo pastry shell. Oh Greek food, how I love thee! I think the fact that Italians and Greeks share a sea and lots of history, has…
Watermelon Margarita
Fresh watermelon blended into a citrusy mix gives this Watermelon Margarita a naturally sweet flavour with a bright, citrusy finish.
Radicchio and Taleggio Lasagne
This, together with my Pesto Lasagne, has to be one of my all time favourite vegetarian lasagne! It is very easy to make and it only requires a few ingredients. Yet, the end result tastes amazing. I think Taleggio and Radicchio were created to be eaten together as their flavours complement each other perfectly. These…
