Recipes from Italy

Cooking this selection

This Italian selection includes pasta, rice, baked doughs and chilled desserts. Cacio e pepe depends on combining cheese with cooking water; risotto needs broth additions while monitoring the rice. Pizza using already fermented dough starts at a different stage from a recipe explaining fermentation, so check which version you are preparing.

Planning the preparation

For a meal with several courses, finish pasta close to serving and assemble oven dishes earlier. Add pesto without prolonged boiling. With tiramisu, distinguish active work from refrigerated resting and check the egg guidance in your chosen version.
