Foodtopia Moments

When God gives you tomatoes and basil, you make a sauce. Today I picked up some beautiful pomodorini (small tomatoes) at the farmers market, along with some free basil. I quartered the pomodorini, added cipolla (onion), olio extravergine di olive (extra virgin olive oil), sale marino (sea salt), and the basilica (basil), then cooked them into a delicious rustic sauce. I used a pasta dell’uovo (egg pasta) with the sauce and topped with some Grana Padano cheese. We also had fete di tachino (turkey cutlets). I seared them, then put them in the oven with olive oil, rosamarina (rosemary), vino bianco (white wine), and limone (lemon). The pranzo (lunch) was easy and delicious.
