Spelt Brioche Bread
Homemade Spelt Brioche Bread with Jam
Is there a recipe that was a challenge for you? What did you make, stubbornly and tenaciously, until it works out as you wanted? In my list of challenges, faced and won after so many attempts and so much patience, I put: mayonnaise, meringue and, recently, brioche bread. After several experiments, I am happy to share a…
Zuppa Imperiale, The Traditional Minestra Of Bologna
Zuppa Imperiale, The Traditional Minestra Of Bologna
When outside it is cold, I can't think of anything better than steaming soup. Despite its name, Zuppa Imperiale is not a soup but a  minestra . And a typical recipe of Bologna. Unlike other Bolognese pasta dishes, you don't need to make sfoglia (pasta dough) to make Zuppa Imperiale. For its easy preparation, you will…
Lasagna Bolognese recipe
Classic Lasagna Bolognese, the original recipe of Bologna
Over the centuries, Bologna has also won the appellation of The Fat for dishes such as lasagna Bolognese. However, when, in 1891, Pellegrino Artusi published the book Science in the Kitchen and the Art of Eating Well, which marked the birth of modern Italian cuisine, the Italian gastronome did not mention any regional lasagna recipes. That…
Tiramisù crostata
Tiramisù Crostata and Why Ahead is my Word of the Year
The beginning of the new year is a good time for new intentions and goals.  Usually, I let a few days pass between reflections on the old year and the purposes for the new one.

Bolognese sauce recipe
Original Bolognese sauce recipe (ragù alla Bolognese)
Some recipes are pages in the book of our life, full of memories. This is the Bolognese sauce for me. Its smell makes me think about the city that welcomed me. Above all, it is one of my first memories in the kitchen. Like that of Neapolitan ragù, it is a historical recipe even though it is not…

Glazed Roast Pork Loin and Things I Love To Do
How did the year start? Under the sign of calm for me. And celebrating the return of roasts on my table. Like this glazed pork loin and baked pork knuckle with beer, that you'll soon see on the blog. After Christmas I gave myself a couple of weeks without any plans. I thought I'd organize a couple…
Traditional Mortadella Mousse Recipe
Traditional Mortadella Mousse Recipe
Like many other recipes from the old Bolognese school, the Mortadella mousse was lost for a while. Perhaps for this reason, when it came back a few years ago, many thought that the mousse was a magic sprouted from the cylinder of the wizards of street food, born already spread on crusty bread. Tortellini…
Russian Salad: An Italian Timeless Classic Side Recipe
Russian Salad: An Italian Timeless Classic Side Recipe
It's a sumptuous side dish. Maybe for that reason many people believe that Russian salad, the Italian version of a great European recipe, is a difficult dish to make. What do you think about reading method before discarding the idea? Sides. In cooking, the word side usually means a dish of vegetables or legumes that accompany the main…
Cheese and Salami Rolls With Boiled Eggs
From The 1970s: Cheese and Salami Rolls With Boiled Eggs
This dish is cheap, quick and easy to make. And vintage. It comes straight from the 1970s. A few ingredients and an impeccable presentation. That's all you need for a dish that is the best of Italian cuisine. Do you know La Cucina Italiana? I am not referring to the heritage of recipes that have made Italian…
