Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Baked lasagne, Northern Italian style (Lasagne al forno)

    • okcook on February 18, 2012

      It really puffs up so have a large dish.

  • "Inebriated" pork chops (Maiale ubriaco)

    • nicolepellegrini on January 22, 2017

      OK, not sure I'd make again. The red wine flavor was fairly overpowering and the chops came out tough (even using very high quality pork that I normally can just pan-sear and keep tender.

  • Creamed spinach soup (Passato di spinaci)

    • twoyolks on January 31, 2017

      This tasted like a slightly bitter version of chicken stock. There just wasn't much flavor from the vegetables.

  • Risotto with shrimp (Risotto con gamberetti in bianco)

    • lorloff on January 15, 2017

      Fantastic recipie! The best risottto we have ever made. Used leeks instead of onions and added saffron to the sauté. Added Scallops to the shrimp and used a combination of homemade fish and shrimp shell stock. Because I am allergic to butter we substituted olive oil for the butter and added very good high end EVOO at the end to serve. It seemed like there would be too much oil in the cooking but it was perfect in the end. We used Acquerello 7 year aged rice which was Devine in this dish. Here i the link for the rice. https://www.amazon.com/Acquerello-Years-Rice-17-6-Ounce/dp/B007RE53R2/ref=sr_1_3_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1484529530&sr=8-3&keywords=acquerello+rice

  • Marinated eggplant (Melanzane marinate)

    • twoyolks on December 07, 2015

      These were simply alright. It's hard to get the eggplant well browned without using a lot of oil. The thickness of the eggplant also makes it difficult to fully cook it.

  • Roasted fish (Pesce arrosto)

    • Breadcrumbs on April 18, 2011

      p. 290 - NB: calls for a whole fish that is stuffed w herbs.

  • Chicken with black olives (Pollo alle olive)

    • nicolepellegrini on June 16, 2015

      Serious perfection. So easy yet so many layers of flavor...this is what so many Italian-American restaurant chicken dishes only wishes to be. After trying once this will be a staple of my kitchen from now on.
