Linguine with Pesto, Beans & Potatoes |
Ligurians call this variation Pesto Avantaggiato—loosely translated as “pesto plus”—and it is by far the best method for serving pesto. The magic touch of this variation is cooking the green beans and potatoes in the same cooking water as the linguine. The result is quite amazing.

|

This recipe is a relatively quick alternative (and a personal variation)—somewhere between a stew, or spezzatino, and a braised beef. Though many of the ingredients are the same as in Braised Beef with Barolo Wine Sauce, the main difference is in the choice of meat: chuck roast is best here. |

Polenta Fritta |
Typically served hot, polenta is thought of as a great winter-time comfort food, but in this recipe, because it is chilled then deep fried. Polenta is for any time of the year when you need a change from the standard french-fried potato.

|
Risotto Milanese |
Saffron is a spice derived from the saffron flower. It has a distinct deep yellow color when added to foods and a sweet hay-like aroma.
The authentic Risotto Milanese is actually made with bone marrow in place of the butter used in the beginning of the dish to soften the onion. 1 1/2 ounces of bone marrow can be used in place of two tablespoons of butter. But if that is not available to you, butter will do just fine but we technically should call it just Risotto with Saffron at that point. |
|
Risotto with Fresh Figs and Taleggio |
A fresh, colorful twist on Risotto. Taleggio cheese makes this dish creamy and bursting with flavor. |
|
Risotto with Parmigiano-Reggiano |
