Ciao amici!What a week it’s been over on social media! I wanted to share a quick recap in case you missed anything—this week’s theme was all about Italian traditions and seasonal recipes. 1. Italian Sunday Dinner: Myth vs Reality 🇮🇹 It’s a feast that starts with a primo (pasta or risotto), followed by a secondo (a meat dish), contorni (sides), and of course, dolce (dessert). The real star, though? Pasticcini—those delicious little pastries we pick up from the local pasticceria after Mass. Growing up in Rome, Pasticceria Antonini in via Sabotino (in the Vatican neighbourhood Prati) was my go-to spot! Try it next time you are in Rome. 2. Apple Caponata: A Winter Twist on a Sicilian Classic 🍎 It’s sweet, sour, and perfect for this time of year when eggplants aren’t in season. Crisp apples replace the eggplants, creating a dish that’s both refreshing and comforting. Whether you serve it as a side dish, an appetizer, or pair it with roasted meats, it’s sure to impress! 3. Chiacchiere: Carnival Treats with Ancient Roots 🎭 Whether you fry them or bake them, these festive treats are perfect to make in big batches to last throughout the celebrations. What was your favorite part of this week’s content? Let me know—I’d love to hear your thoughts and see your creations if you try any of these recipes!
