Ricotta tortelloni of Bologna recipe
Parsley and ricotta tortelloni. Recipe of Bologna
This is the recipe for ricotta tortelloni, a dish deeply rooted in the culinary tradition of Bologna and the surrounding area.  While tortellini is the holiday dish, ricotta tortelloni, like cappelletti romagnoli with cheese, respected the Catholic Church's precepts of a meatless menu on the days of Eve and Lent. The recipe has been registered…

Cappelletti romagnoli with cheese recipe
Cappelletti romagnoli with cheese recipe
Filled pasta evokes memories of rituals and traditions that belong to my family history. Maybe it is that the Holiday season is coming, or it's the passing of time that is to blame, but I admit, for the past few years since mid-November onward, I have started to make stock pots and tons of fresh stuffed…

Homemade Parmigiano stock recipe
Homemade Parmigiano stock recipe (with rind)
In Italian kitchens, the stock is a staple recipe with several uses. All the broths share the same main ingredients and preparation method: water, vegetables (almost always the base is one stick of celery with the leaves, one skinless white onion, and one whole carrot), and salt. Then, there is the ingredient that gives a specific taste. Again,…

Nonna's special tiramisù recipe
The special tiramisù recipe of Nonna Sara
Nonna's special tiramisù is a recipe we had lost and recently found again. So many of her recipes brighten tables that are not our own. Nonna left few written recipes compared to her enormous repertoire. On the other hand, she shared them by letter with other women and as many as she received. Or she exchanged them with…

Torta di robiola
Robiola cake and the notebook with the black cover
Most of my grandma's recipes, like this robiola cake, live in our memory. Sometimes, I feel sorry thinking about the ones we lost. But, more often, I am happy for those we have recovered, patiently cooking until we have reconstructed the flavors we remembered. Nonna collected recipes as others do stamps. Her repertoire ranged from…

Bologna cheese flan recipe
Cheese flan, typical recipe of Bologna and Romagna
The modern version of the cheese flan recipe combines many flavors; the original recipe calls for Parmesan cheese only. This recipe, typical of the tradition of Bologna and Romagna, allows me to tell why Bologna, the capital of Emilia-Romagna and located in the Emilia part of the region, has a heart that is a bit Romagnolo. A…

Sweet ricotta tart recipe
A sweet ricotta tart (crostata) to celebrate a new awareness
I am a reserved person. I don't usually talk about my feelings or problems. I don't remember doing so with such sincerity in my buckwheat cake post (HERE). In January 2019, I asked myself where to find the strength to get through a difficult time. After three years and a long fall, I am here to share the answer. And…
