  • Mushroom and Bean Soup

    I often extoll the virtues of slow, mindful cooking. In fact, many times the slower the better: the flavours are bursting, the food is filling and you can just taste the difference. But, on a rushed weeknight, I don’t mind the type of food that is done quickly but tastes like it took hours. That’s […]

    Nonna Tip: Proof yeast if unsure of freshness. Warm 1 cup of the water to 110°F. Add 1 tsp sugar & yeast package. Cover 5-10 min. until foamy. Add to flour & continue as directed. If yeast won’t foam discard & obtain fresh.

    Melanzane sott’olio (Pickled Eggplant) is a great way to preserve eggplants from your garden! Make just a small batch if you like with even just 5 or six eggplants! Although tackling a bushel is always commendable and so very traditional…making even a jar or two is well worth the effort and really not that difficult. […]

  • Cheese-less Pizza Topping

Make your (our) favourite pizza dough and use our recipe for classic pizza sauce and  follow the recipe below and you’ll see. Buon Appetito! Yeild […]
