Due amici in padella – Radicchio di Chioggia e carciofi in teglia Radicchio al forno is a typical Northern Italian dish. I somehow added a little touch to it, by adding artichokes and topping it all with breadcrumbs, garlic and parsley. Artichokes and radicchio go perfectly well together, the [...]

Un basmati pas comme les autres – Basmati rouge corail aux crevettes, fanes de moutarde et pois I think by now I must have tried almost all the different kinds of rice on the market, going from basic to fancy. The funny thing is that I am not a big rice eater but when I see a kind I never tasted, [...]

I cardoni di nonno Luigi – Cardoni gratinati con pomodori, olive e parmigiano I wanted to give a little “hommage” to this wonderful vegetable that seems to be unknown or almost unknown.

La Fregola è gelosa del risotto – Fregola allo zafferano con zucchine e funghi I adore Fregola’s texture…those little round balls that are similar to couscous but are really not…It’s a pasta specialty from Sardinia and when cooked they remain somehow chewy and al dente at the same time. This [...]

I rarely snack or buy snacks, so [...]

Une petite envie de quinoa – Quinoa épicé aux asperges, pois et carottes A little quinoa bowl is enough for a light dinner with a salad. Especially that today I did not have any energy whatsoever. Muggy and awfully grey weather, friends moving out of the Bay Area, is not helping with the [...]
