Cherry Tomato and Cream Conchiglie
I know, I know; this isn’t very exciting at all. But I’ve been extremely busy this week between university and my job, and could barely find the time to cook anything at all.… Continue reading
Polenta con Funghi Porcini
I’ve always loved polenta since the first time I tried it in a rifugio after a long hike in the Dolomites, and make it semi-regularly as a very cheap, delicious, and quick meal. And… Continue reading
Sweet Zucchini Salad
Now that I get some delicious lettuce in my Abel & Cole box every Wednesday (thanks to my great mom), I’ve finally started enjoying salad again. But no salad I’ve ever made before has… Continue reading
Zucchini and Mint Soup
Ever since I got a hand blender, I’ve been experimenting with making soups – something I’d never even done before a month ago. I don’t even like soups that much, but for some… Continue reading
Avocado and Agave Salad
I’m not going to lie, I did somewhat steal this recipe from another website (I thought it was from the New York Times and was going to link to the original, but I… Continue reading
Supplí allo Zafferano
Although these aren’t the classic supplí, they were, surprisingly, the first ones I ever tried. I’ve wanted to make them for a while, but now that I came back from Egypt with tons… Continue reading
Kalamata and Porcini Risotto
I was in the mood for experimenting the other day, and decided to try a tomato-based risotto, which isn’t exactly a classic in Italy. To take the experiment the extra step, I decided… Continue reading
Creamy Olive Penne
Once again, I’d like to apologize for not posting very often; I promise I’m doing my best to get back on track. But anyway, let’s get to the point: I finally found a… Continue reading
Butternut Squash Risotto
Just another simple risotto, kind of like the pumpkin one but with a very unique tastes. It’s also easier to chop up and is a good way to keep things changing. Like all… Continue reading
Olive Ascolane
To be completely honest, I can’t believe I actually managed to make these. Olive ascolane are a traditional Italian food from le Marche, but which are everywhere in Rome as well. One of… Continue reading
Pasta e Fagioli
I know today was supposed to be another International recipe, but I’ve left on a trip to Rome and then Paris to bring my cat back to London (long story) and haven’t had… Continue reading
Aubergine and Pine Nut Pasta
This is an extremely tasty pasta, which also happens to be quite nutritious. I came up with this pretty much by just picking random ingredients that I felt like eating and combining it… Continue reading
Penne all’Arrabiata
Here’s what I ate more than anything else this past summer in Italy. Unless I was cooking at home, in which case I was most likely making some zucchini pasta, every time I… Continue reading
Wild Mushroom Pasta
I’ve been making a lot of stuff with mushrooms lately, but it’s only because I finally found a place to buy quality mushrooms for very decent prices and I might have gotten over… Continue reading
Exotic Mushroom Risotto
If you like mushrooms, this is the recipe for you. And if you like risotto too, well, then I think this might just become your favorite food. I love risotto in general, but… Continue reading
Tofu and Olive Linguine
Ok so this one is quite interesting. I started off just making a puttanesca, but when I realized that I had no capers and that I had some leftover tofu I thought, whatever,… Continue reading
Croquettes with Mushroom Sauce
I’m not going to lie, I feel kind of like a fraud for posting this because it’s practically the same as a recipe I got from a cookbook my mom just gave me.… Continue reading
Tortiglioni al Ragú
Ragú is probably one of the most world-famous recipes for pasta, although you probably know it as Bolognese sauce. Although there are some technical differences between the two, they are minimal – and… Continue reading
Spicy Mushroom and Sausage Pasta
I know, I know, I make way too much stuff with mushroom and sausages. But since it’s so easy, cheap, and tasty, after I made this for myself I thought I might as… Continue reading
Sweet Potato Risotto
Sweet potatoes don’t actually exist in Italy, so this isn’t really a traditional Italian recipe. However, I love sweet potatoes and at the end of the day it’s still a risotto made in… Continue reading
