Five Sicilian pasta dishes to open a proper May dinner


Buongiorno Reader,

May is arriving — and with it many occasions that deserve a proper meal.

Let's start with pasta.

In Italy, pasta is never served alongside the meat or fish. It comes first, given its own moment at the table — then the secondo follows separately.

This week I'm giving you both, so that when you sit down for a special occasion this month, the whole meal is already planned.

Today, five Sicilian pasta dishes to open the table:

Pasta alla Norma

Pasta with Creamy Sicilian Pistachio Pesto

Sicilian Tomato Pesto Rosso:

Baked Eggplant Pasta Anelletti:

Sicilian Swordfish Pasta with Eggplant:

On Friday — the secondo that goes with each one.

Buon appetito,

Laura
