cucumber and mozzarella salad
For the first time this year, I decided to plant in my vegetable garden, a couple of different varieties of tomatoes, two kinds that I haven’t eaten before, YELLOW cherry tomatoes (even if they look orange) and BLACK tomatoes . I had the inspiration when I was watching an old [...]

caprese
Nothing is faster to prepare, fresh and tasty to eat as a good CAPRESE, especially for a summer lunch. Also at this time of year tomatoes are delicious and the basil is abundant. I started to collect the first cherry tomatoes from my vegetable garden and feel the taste of a freshly picked [...]
crispy fried vegetable
Clearly all this time my zucchini continue to grow. I’ve already had enough to freeze a couple of bags , simply cut into cubes. With the others i made a new version of Parmigiana, in which I substituted eggplants for zucchini and have frozen these too. But, to my delight, in [...]

fry artichokes
One thing I immediately noticed when I came to live in the countryside, is the habit of planting roses or artichokes at the beginning of each row of grapes. The meaning of roses was then explained to me, the rose plant serves as a wake-up call, being in fact a very [...]
parmigiana
My Neapolitan grandmother always told me that the origin of Parmigiana di melanzane (eggplant parmigiana) there was no doubt, came from Napoli.
