  1. LET’S START WITH COLORS

    10 October 2011 // flaviabi

    antipasto dei colori

    … Instead of the usual ham and melon, with the melon we’ll make a mousse:  peel it, put it in the blender, flavor with olive oil and chili; pass through a strainer and throw away the water: add 5 sheets of gelatin and let it cool in the refrigerator for 3 hours.

    Add Pecorino (sheep) cheese with spicy fig jam ….. and a healthy salad of fresh tomatoes and basil.

    ………….. and let’s go with the colors!
