Lasagna is my favorite!

Answer 6

I enjoy Linguine Marinara with either clam sauce or tossed with olive oil, olives, sea food, and Parmesan-Reggiano cheese, sautéd garlic, and parsley.

I also liked a veal dish I had that was like a roulade, but I didn't know the name of it.

It was a thinly sliced veal chop, rolled around a cheese and mushroom mixture and then braised in a butter sauce. It was artery hardening, but so very very profanely good!! As were the stuffed pasta shells with white sauce I had that were Northern Italian. Benissimo!

I am Italian as well. I love to make and eat Lasagna as well as pesto sauce with pasta.

There are so many wonderful sauces and meals to make, it is hard to choose, but I can't say I have only one favourite. I love to cook lots of different foods, just to try them out.....

Answer 11

The best part about Italian food is the experimentation.  For example, I recently made a pan-seared chicken dish with diced tomatoes, rosemary, garlic, oregano, all mixed with al dente farfalle noodles.  It was fantastic.

Of the more traditional Italian foods, I LOVE real Italian pizza, lasagna, and spaghetti.  I sometimes get on a fettuccine alfredo kick, maybe with some chicken, some broccoli, and bell peppers.

Well, nuts.  Now I'm hungry and lunch is an hour away.

Answer 12

I'm Italian born but living in Canada from the time I was a little child and I love Italian Food.  My mother was a very good cook and I learned cooking from my mother and later from my mother-in-law, and Godmother.  I love to cook,and have been cooking all my life.  Cooking is my passion.  Lasagna is one of my favorites and I also love Lasagna Verde made with Spinach Pasta. I first had Lasagaa Verde in Florence when I was on my Honeymoon as it is a specialty of Northern Italy.  Coming from the South of Italy it was new for me, and I fell in love with it and learned to make it and I make it often. I make 4 different kinds of Lasagna, but my favorite is the one that my mother taught me from my home-town.

I  love to cook spaghetti with Bolognese Sauce, Gnocchi Patate con Succo, Cannelloni with Vitello, Mannicotti with Ricotta and Spinach, Ravioli con Carne di Manzo e Spinachi, Risotto  all Milanese, Risotto di Frutta di Mare, Rise Balls, Melanzane Ripieni,  Melanzane alla Parmigiane, Peparoni Repieni, Crocchette di Patate, Zuppa di Pesce, Minestrone, Pasta e Fagioli,  Pasta e Chieci, Zuppa di Lentecchie, Zuppa De Pesce, Brodo di Manzo, Brodo di Pollo con Pastina, Spaghetti alla Carbonara, Penne all Forno, Ricatonni alla Volka, Fettuccini al Pomadoro, Pizza, Insalata di Pomodori. Insalata di Fagiolini, Insalata di frutta di Mare, Maiale alla Napoletana, Spaghetti al Alio e Olio, Spaghetti al Tono and Succo,  Saltimbocca, Pollo alla Cacciatora, Pollo alla Parmigiana, Polpette con Sugo di Pomodoro, L'Osso Buco, Scaloppine di Vitello, Vitello alla Grilla, Spezzatino di Vitello, Braciole Ripiene, Arrosto di Agnello, Bistecca alla Fiorentina, Coniglio Al Vino Bianco, Coniglio al Cacciatore,  Baccala in Succo  and also Fritto, Calamari in Succo and Fritto, Shrimp al Succo e Spagetti, Smelts Fritti, Polenta con Succo e Parmigiano and Dumplings of many kinds, my favorite Ricotta Dumplings.  Mmmm all so good

In the summer time I love cooking with the many and varied vegetables.. I love making battered-fried vegetables..every Italian household has a recipe or two for such tasty treats.  I love battered Pumpkin Blossoms, such a treat, and zucchini fritters, tiella di Zucchini e Patate, Patate in Tiella con Salccica, Patate Fritte con Peparoni, Salccica con Rapini, Peperonata, Funghi Ripieni, Piseli e Pasta, Fave, Carciofini,  Cavolo Stufato, Fagiolini Verde in Succo and In Salata, Fagiolini Secci in Forno con Succo e Carne di Maille.

And a good Frittate anytime, but in the summer so delicious with the many and varied vegetables..with onions, zucchini, mushrooms, Cavollo and Broccoli and the varied cheeses and salami..a good Frittate is the ultimate olmette.

For Dessert I love making my Italian Sponge Cake, the Ultimate with Fresh Fruit any time of the year.  Italian Almond Cookies, Christmas Honey Cookies,  amaretti, Christmas Turnovers, Italian Trifle, Torta di Mele, tarralli, freze, Potato Donuts, Cenci, Canoli, Tiramisu and Spoliatelle.

The list goes on and on.  And of course let me not forget all the home-style foods I love to perserve, like our home-made and jarred peeled tomatoes and puree for our tomatoe sauce, giardieri, olives, pickled melanzane, peppers and mushrooms, and of course preserved Roasted Peppers.

I love to make my own home-made pasta and gnocchi.

I bought my first pasta machine when I was on my honeymoon in Italy 38 years ago.. Still using it.. I was 20 years old when I married my husband and I learned to make pasta after I married..

Shortly after I married, I cooked for a crowd of 14 people visiting from Italy.   I cooked home-made Ravioli ( Pasta and filling all from Scratch)  Stuffed Braccioli, Artichokes and Roasted Potatoes alla Italiana. Everyone that evening said I made the best Ravioli they ever had tasted.

To finish off any meal a good expresso with quality coffee beans, and in the summer time Iced Cappucino..

This is a short list of the many and varied Italian Dishes. The List of Italian dishes is endless as each little town has its own specialites but most of the well-known home recipes are timeless and each household has it own version.  But all so good.  I hope I have reminded you of some of these recipes and if you need the recipe of any in here, please let me know and I will make sure to email them to you..

The recipes will be my own ones and you will get easy instructions as I would do it.  If you love to cook Italian you probably have cooked many of these dishes and others as well, but it is something to think about.

Enjoy, and Happy Cooking....Happy Eating.

Enjoy.. nothing better.
