Chickpea crêpes with broccoli, Auricchio & shrimps

This is a great, creative variation on the more traditional sweet crêpes! The shrimps go well with the broccoli and the Auricchio Provolone crowns this duet with elegance. Very versatile, this dish can be served as an imaginative main course, as a savoury mid-afternoon snack or as part of an appetiser buffet. The crêpe batter itself is also very interesting, since it's partly made of chickpea flour! Try out this unique recipe and have fun tweaking it to your own taste!

Chocolate Orange Cake

This cake is probably the perfect companion for winter time and those cozy days in front of a roaring open fire! Chocolate is always good, but coupling it with oranges, a typical winter fruit, makes it particularly timely. This easy recipe gives you the perfect any time cake: enjoy it at breakfast time, as a healthy mid-afternoon snack, with a nice cup of tea, as well as at dinner time, after a nice meal, while sipping on a glass of fine sweet wine.

Couscous with peas cream & walnuts

Here comes a dish containing a somewhat alternative ingredient, couscous. Some might think it is a cereal, but it actually is a traditional Berber product made from semolina, granules of durum wheat. This very versatile ingredient, a staple food in North Africa, can be cooked and served with vegetables or stews, but it also can be used to prepare delightful 'salads' or desserts.

Creamy risotto with raw ham and chopped pumpkin

Pumpkin risotto is a well-known dish in traditional Lombard cuisine. Very easy to make and incredibly tasty at the same time, it makes an ideal dish for cold autumn or winter days. Its origins are, as the majority of the courses prepared with pumpkin, humble ones, as this vegetable was cultivated and eaten mostly by peasants. In this version we decided to enrich the recipe a bit by adding another much-loved ingredient of the northern culinary tradition: raw ham.

Crunchy potato flan

Who said mashed potatoes are boring? This recipe will show you how to create an incredibly tasty, original potato flan! Just add a few fine ingredients like nuts, Provolone cheese, spices.. and the magic is done!

Just get some organic dates, russet apples and the most common baking ingredients: butter, eggs and sugar. You will be surprised by the result! A fine and delicate dessert, it can be enjoyed both warm or cold.

Dried fruit and apple couscous

Some might think couscous is a cereal, but in actual fact it is a traditional Berber product made from semolina, granules of durum wheat. This very versatile ingredient, a staple food in the regions of North Africa, can be cooked and served with vegetables or stews (meat or fish), but it also can be used to prepare delightful 'salads' or desserts, like the one we are presenting here. Enjoy this nutty fruity couscous salad!

Dried fruit rice

Ok, ok, we admit it: this does not look or sound like a typical traditional Italian dish. But! We can assure you that the quality of the ingredients and the creativity of the chef are 100% green, white and red! This is a quite unusual dish, somehow inspired by the Southeast Asian cuisine, where combining of savoury and sweet is commonplace, the use of nuts widespread and the basmati rice is a native staple food.

Fregula with clams and cherry tomatoes

Fregula with clams and tomatoes is a very typical Sardinian dish. The fregula pasta, in fact, is traditionally made on this beautiful sunny island by rubbing durum wheat flour together with water in a terracotta bowl, until it sticks together forming little balls of 2 to 6 mm each. Enjoy this dish at the beginning of a fish-based meal and get that holiday feeling for a while!

Fried artichokes with honey and fine herbs vinegar

Who does not like deep fried food? Most of the time it's just junk food, but there is a healthy way of enjoying it, that is to make it at home, from real natural ingredients, and eat it hot, straight out of the pan! There are several ways of coating vegetables, seafood or whatever else you are planning to deep fry, but we suggest you to simply coat your food with some flour. Enjoy this artichoke delicacy with your family and friends!

Fusilli alla Norma

This delicious pasta is one of the most typical Sicilian dishes! Invented in the Catania, where it's called 'Pasta Ca' Norma', the original recipe is characterised by fresh tomato sauce, fried aubergines, basil and a typical hard cheese called 'ricotta salata' (salty ricotta). Ideal in summer, when tomatoes, aubergines and basil are in season. Enjoy!
