Truffle Tagliatelle
Three Words: Truffle, Parmesan and Butter! This pasta starts with a homemade Tagliatelle and is combined with a luxurious butter and truffle infusion. Sprinkle some fresh Parmigiano and you have something ‘Just Gorgeous.’
Nonna’s Pasta Cake
This is the only kind of Easter surprise I need. This Southern Italian specialty is made by combining cooked pasta with a sweetened custard that is flavored with rose water and orange blossom water for a lovely spring flavor. Here’s the recipe; it will make your home smell *just gorgeous*:
The BEST Authentic Italian Minestrone Recipe
This soup is like a warm hug from Nonna. It’s filled with fresh, seasonal vegetables and simmered to perfection with some tomatoes and Parmigiano rind, which creates a beautiful broth.
My Favorite Lasagna Recipe
My Nonna’s lasagna is very near and dear to my heart. This recipe has three main components, a slow-cooked ragu, a creamy bechamel sauce, and fresh homemade pasta sheets. Something extraordinary happens in the oven when these ingredddients are layered with fresh mozzarella, Parmigiano, and hard-boiled eggs. You’ll just have to make it yourself to experience this magic.
