Other Italian Recipes

These articles by guest authors are devoted to Italian recipes some familiar, and some quite unexpected...

You can make them at home, or may find some in your favorite Italian restaurant. They are all tasty, but undoubtedly some are better for you than others. Every recipe contains a beautiful, somewhat related photo (no, we didn't take them ourselves).

A clickable list of recipes follows immediately. Then we briefly describe each recipe, followed by a direct quote to entice you to read it. While we do not necessarily agree with each author's affirmations, we only present material that we feel is of value. We plan to increase our collection from time to time. Check out our new section on regional specialties and wine pairings.
