Getting school credit to eat = legit. Today we cooked for the first time in my Food of Italy class - and it was AWESOME. Throughout the course of the semester, we will be preparing typical dishes from different regions of Italy, as each region has its own history and style of cooking that we'll learn about.Piatto del giorno: Trenette al pesto and Bonet
Today, we prepared food typical of the Northwest regions of Piedmont & Valle d'Aosta - Trenette al Pesto (above) and Bonet (a caramel coated custard) for dessert (right). The coolest part was that we made everything from scratch - the pasta, pesto sauce & dessert!
Upcoming dishes:
- Risotto alla Milanese, Ossobuco & Caramelle alle mele
- Peperonata, pasta e fagioli & Zaleti
- Ravioli with meat sauce (ragu), panna cotta
- Fiori fritti, pappa al pomodoro & cantuccini with vinsanto
- Saltimbocca alla romana, crostata di frutta fresca
- Brodetto (seafood stew) alla Marchigiana, Broccoli al limone & Millefoglie ai frutti di bosco
