Life is very complicated but full of little satisfactions too...It's maybe the magic power of Christmas...Anyway let's start with some traditional italian recipe to make these cold days warmer!!!
The 24th, due the Christian tradition, we usually don't eat meat. It means fish fish fish!!! My mum likes cooking salmon or "spigola" (not sure about the translation...my dictionary gives me "bass"!). Of course, being in Italy, we can't forget pasta...You can follow your taste but I would suggest "vongole" (clams) pasta.
Very typical in Rome is fried vegetables...The king of the season is definitely the artichoke!!! But we also have broccoli, cauliflower even apples if you like!!!
Don't forget white wine, from Frascati area if you are from Rome!!!
Last part of our special dinner is all about sweets...Torroni (nougats), panettone (a kind of big sponge cake filled by raisin), dried fruits...and more and more!!!
The most important ingredient is sharing all of this with your family!!!
...to be continued...
