Potato dumplings with cabbage & Auricchio cheese

Potatoes, pistachios, pork and provolone 'croquettes'

Fried (meat) balls have always been a much loved comfort food. Everyone from children to adults, loves to eat these savoury dainties.

Prickly lettuce pizza

We called it 'pizza', but actually this dish is more similar to what French people call a 'quiche'.. but well, the recipe is Italian, so we allow ourselves to misuse the word this once! Try out this original and incredibly delicious dish, serve it to your friends and family or take it with you if you are going on an outing somewhere - just put it in a Tupperware container and you're good to go!

Provolone and swiss chard Canederli with herb butter

Canéderli (Knödel in German) is a typical dish of the Trentino-Alto Adige region. Its recipe is pretty ancient and, being made mainly of stale bread, it also represented a way for the paesants to recover leftover food. The dumplings can be served in broth or 'dry', with melted butter, gulasch, sauerkraut, wild chicory.. or with spinach or chard like in this recipe!

Pumpkin Gnocchi

A tasty first course for Sunday Lunch or a Dinner with Friends

Pumpkin risotto with Cantuccini

Pumpkin risotto is a well-known dish of 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 alternative version, the savoury risotto is crowned with crumbled chocolate Cantuccini, transforming this dish into a chic flight of fancy.

Radicchio, dry prunes & apples appetiser

Rice in mushroom cream sauce

This is a risotto that is reminiscent of autumn, of long walks in the woods, cosy times with friends and family. Delicious with dried mushrooms, you can also make it with fresh ones, which won't need to be soaked in hot water to get rid of the 'dirt' and to revive the mushroom's flesh. Ideal for any occasion, from everyday cooking, to a dinner with friends or with your significant other, this is a risotto you really must try.

Rice in pressure cooker with walnuts

Risotto with Mascarpone and walnuts is a quick, yet incredibly delicious recipe. The sweet Mascarpone cheese balances out the light bitterness of the walnuts, creating a rich and blissful dish. On top of it, walnuts are some of the healthiest dried fruit available, with their high content of good fats, such as omega 3 and omega 6, as well as arginine, a conditionally essential amino acid, which offers multiple cardiovascular benefits.

Rice Plum cake with apricots

A soft and light Italian plum cake, the ideal choice for breakfast or as a mid-afternoon snack. Easy to make, with a bit of thought this cake can easily be made gluten-free too: all you need to do is replace the regular bread crumbs and flour with coeliac-friendly ingredients, such as buckwheat breadcrumbs and corn or rice flour.

In this recipe we show you how to cook a delicious cauliflower salad, a sweet-sour dish with plenty of healthy ingredients! The savoury taste of the anchovies, capers and peppers go well with the delicate flavour of the cauliflower, creating a harmonious contrast.

Risotto 'alla Parmigiana'

Risotto 'alla Parmigiana' is probably the easiest and best loved risotto recipes, the father of all other risottos and the basis for most of them, since it can be modified and enriched according to your own taste with meat, mushrooms, vegetables, spices.. to create brand-new recipes. The special ingredient here is Parmigiano Reggiano, the famous hard cheese that gives creaminess, aroma and taste to the risotto.
