Notes about Recipes in this book

• Wicked white Bolognese

  • JuneHawk on February 16, 2024

    This is delicious and quick for a bolognese.

• Peppery pappardelle, pancetta & mushrooms

  • Lepa on October 03, 2022

    This is tasty. The sauce is a bit thin and needs more salt but it tasted delicious on the homemade papparadelle.

• Basic egg dough and Large-batch egg dough

  • Lepa on October 03, 2022

    This recipe worked well and the dough was nice to work with.

• Luxurious pomodoro in a flash

  • Lepa on October 17, 2022

    This was decent but I like Alison Roman's version with onions and tomato paste much better so I doubt I will revisit this one.

• Butter lettuce with celery, pistachio & pecorino Toscano

  • Lepa on October 17, 2022

    This was just okay but it may deserve a do-over because I failed to marinate the celery and used raw, unsalted pistachios. That said, the dressing wasn't my favorite.

  • ozfoodie on May 08, 2023

    I really liked this. The dressing 'makes' it. Different... but in a nice way! Used festival lettuce, which was the closest I could get to butter lettuce, and cheese that was labelled simply 'pecorino'. A nice touch to marinate the celery. It beautifully complemented the risotto bake I served it with.

• All about arugula salad

  • Lepa on October 03, 2022

    Simple and delicious.

• Creamy wild mushroom & potato gnocchi

  • Lepa on January 05, 2023

    These gnocchi were less toothsome than others I have made. They almost fell apart in the mouth but not in a good way. Maybe they need more flour? The sauce was good but not as good as a Polish version of this dish (same but different!) I usually make.

• Cavatelli with sausage, peppers & oregano

  • gamulholland on May 25, 2024

    This was rich and indulgent and delicious and went over well with the kids. Really good. Definitely need to repeat it.

• Beef short rib pappardelle

  • katiesue28 on October 30, 2023

    This was very good. I personally loved the addition of a dollop creme fraiche, though my husband preferred it without. The fresh oregano is a must!

• Nectarine & cucumber salsa with burrata

  • lean1 on August 07, 2024

    made this with garden cucumber and a friends nectarines, used a tiny red onion and chile powder instead of a thai chile. It's delicious. Lots of flavor. Will try it with peaches next time.
