Outside Plastic Playsets

Dreaming the fjords ...



After having enjoyed the unique taste, this year I do not ever escape the celery root, when I find him.

Like last week, when I saw light and compact so beautiful ... I could not resist, but I wanted to go a bit beyond the usual salad , so I left to prepare a little 'taste and drive. .. from the fridge: crunching a few flakes in the pantry I threw the eye until the eye has not fallen on that jar. It was impossible not to think about, the combination seemed to scream with mustard rather than call me:)

Eventually the couple I liked so much that I wanted to play around 'here then steamed, to soften the taste of celery and better accommodate the mustard. And then the entrance anise, as used in Nordic cuisine, which replaced the end of the first experiment with parsley.



Air Sweden this dish reminded me that I had seen recently on television in the preparation of Crisp Bread, Swedish crispbread that thin, ultra flavored with caraway or anise.

How not to try? Already I seemed to feel at home .... looked all over Northern

And then I wanted to make this bread, and because Sunday trip to Ikea was skipped for a failure of the machine and find it here do not talk, and because I wanted to try the new oven:) And as
1 +1 does not always 2, jump in the pot here, this is the case say, a slice of smoked salmon to top it all, baby, it's still a rather fat fish, but enough to brighten and warm the pot, with his beautiful color.

I've photographed, but a good beer, cool, well-hopped, is the final touch.

What's missing? I would say only a beautiful fjord outside the window, fishing boats returning to port, light and fresh air that brings home the flavor and color of the sea ... For now I'll settle
di sognarlo, gustandomi questo spuntino  ;)

Summary Of Each Chapter

Reopens Kitchen Pasta and faglioli ... Closed for renovation reversed

Son returned, finally, with me and the new kitchen. We could not live more than " camped" in the few square feet of dining room, surrounded by boxes.

Actually that's not all in place: some pieces are still missing, wrong delivery, I still paint somewhere, finish to fix little things in the electrical .... però.... devo dire che è ... bellissima.

Sarà che è la mia prima cucina , intendo acquistata e non ereditata, ma la trovo proprio bella: un sacco di spazi dove mettere tante cosine, un fornello enorme, un bel forno, e poi... bella.

Devo ammettere che se ci non fosse stata un'occasione incredibile, se non ci fosse stata mia sorella a fornirci a prezzo di produzione le pietre per i rivestimenti, se non ci fossimo arrangiati a fare tutti i lavori... probabilmente non l'avremmo mai cambiata.

Per ora vi posto qualche anteprima, qualche dettaglio, in attesa che sia completata...

anteprima_2
anteprima_3
anteprima_4
anteprima_1



And of course I could not just throw me on the stove, as I was tired of cooking in the microwave. I wanted to post, also to thank you for the support and advice, and I did even though the photos, in the haste and confusion, did not turn much.

We come to the plate: the idea to me I was building this morning, when the market I found some great Lamon beans, already wet and ready to cook.

Tonight pasta and beans but then ... oh yes, there is a but, this time the pasta is not to end up in soup, beans, on the contrary, is the pasta to hold the soup.


And since a few days ago I bought pastry rings, why not use them to give shape to this mega paccheri able to contain this dense delight.

The recipe really is not anything special, and overall, thanks to the pressure cooker, really fast (35-40 minutes).


And then a nice big pot of bean proteins which do not involve meat or dairy products for one night.
addition, the bean is also rich in phosphorus, iron, potassium, calcium, and vitamin B complex and then a major source of energy and cell regeneration.
Energy clean though, because its fibers help in the absorption of fat, reducing the level of cholesterol in the blood.

pasta in the evening is not ideal, but is small and can then replace the bread is fine and then ... I take a few pounds or I'll change the title of the blog in La Cucina di Albertino ... but this will tell you again;)


Ingredients for 3 people
  • 300 grams of dried beans already wet (at least 12 hours)
  • 300 gr potatoes 1 carrot
  • 1 / 2 onion 1 stalk of celery
  • 1 clove garlic 1 sprig of rosemary, sage leaves, 1 sprig of thyme, 1 bay leaf
  • extra virgin olive oil salt pepper little
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste ( optional)
  • strips of dried meat or bacon (optional)
  • 50 grams of flour 00
  • 50 grams of whole wheat flour 1 egg
  • a pinch of salt Preparation


Bake the beans in a pressure cooker with the bay leaves in plenty of lightly salted water 5 minutes, calculated from the first whistle .

Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut into chunks. Cut into small cubes also carrot, onion and celery and put them to cook sweet with 1 tablespoon olive oil and little water.

Add in the pressure cooker for beans and potatoes 15 minutes calculated from the first whistle .

Chop the herbs and add to sauté with a little pepper and, if you like, even the tomato paste. Add a little water if necessary.

Meanwhile put a little salted water to boil and prepare the dough for the pasta to the egg mix well Sift flour and salt. Knead for 5 minutes and then let it sit in the film.

potatoes and beans are ready, then mash half the mill ed aggiungete il purè al soffritto. Aggiungete anche il brodo di cottura di fagioli e patate. Continuate la cottura per 10 minuti circa, fino a quando il minestrone non sarà bello denso ed omogeneo.

Le restanti patate e fagioli possono essere essere aggiunte subito al minestrone, ma potrebbero sfaldarsi prima di finire la cottura, quindi c'è chi preferisce aggiungerli dopo 5 minuti.

Mentre il minestrone finisce di cuocere, tirate la pasta non troppo finemente in strisce sottili, regolandovi sulla misura del vostro coppapasta e cuocetela nell'acqua salata che avevate messo a bollire, che nel frattempo avrete insaporito con uno o due cucchiai di minestrone.

Scolatela e usatela per rivestire, direttamente nel plate, the inside of the pastry rings, lined with parchment paper soaked, oiled and squeezed. Make two layers and do not worry if you do not remain tightly closed to form a circle, then we think the soup to give it shape. Let rest for a while 'so that the dough will stick well wiping layer upon layer and seals.

By now it should be ready for the soup. If it was not too dense, the composition would be difficult, add a little cornstarch and then stretched in a little water to thicken it a bit '.

Fill the spoon with the rings of dough and then let it rest a while ', maybe the cold (so cold, this soup is good as hot) before you remove the pastry rings.

Decorate with a bit 'of potatoes and beans, the spices used, grana. I added with a few thin threads of dried meat (the couples romanesche) and some parmesan cheese.
I like to draw the richness of the soup once, without overloading, when you add (to add flavor but also fat and substance) of pork rind or crust old and hard cheese during cooking.

Best Remineralizing Toothpaste



I am sorry to announce that about a week the blog will be closed ....



... work in the kitchen:)

Yes, after so long io e mia moglie abbiamo trovato il compromesso che cercavamo e trovato la cucina che potesse mettere d'accordo entrambi.

Quindi, come potete vedere, ho iniziato i lavori, togliendo mattonelle, spaccando muri, mettendo mano all'impianto elettrico (voglio tanta luce e tante prese corrente ;); poi toccherà allo scrostamento, tinteggiatura, stuccatura, fino a quando arriveranno il piastrellista ed il mobiliere...

Insomma una settimana bella intensa in cui, tra l'altro, sarà un tantino difficile cucinare :(

Per oggi me la sono cavata, in pieno cantiere, con una pastasciuttina d'emergenza.



Ci voleva questa pasta con il cavolfiore allo zafferano, legato con pochissima ricotta e poi spolverizzato con bottarga di muggine; l'ideale per ridare un po' di energie a queste vecchie braccia stanche, più abituate a far saltare spaghetti in padella che ad usare mazzetta e scalpello :(

Per ora vi lascio, vi auguro buon fine settimana, ed vi do' appuntamento fra una settimana... nella mia nuova cucina.

Se intanto vi va di ... sentirmi, se non vi basta dovermi sopportare qui sul blog, potete scaricare cliccando qui la mia intervista di giovedì su Radio Radicchio.

Pasta con cavolfiore allo zafferano e bottarga di muggine

Ingredienti
Per 3 persone
  • 240 gr di pasta (io ho usato un misto di penne e gnocchetti sardi)
  • 1/3 di cavolfiore medio
  • 1 bustina di zafferano
  • 1 spicchio d'aglio
  • 1 cucchiaio di ricotta (meglio se di bufala)
  • abbondante pepe
  • bottarga di muggine
  • sale
Preparazione

Lessate in acqua salata e colorata con 1/2 bustina di zafferano le cimette del cavolfiore per 5-10 minuti, mantenendole un po' croccanti.
Scolatele senza buttare l'acqua di cottura, e passatele in padella aggiungendo un mestolo dell'acqua di cottura e l'aglio tritato finemente.
Mentre la pasta cuoce in acqua salata, continuare a cuocere the cauliflower in the pan, adding a little water to the baking time if necessary. When
miss 2 minutes to cook the pasta, drain and pass it with the cauliflower, adding more water to cook the cauliflower in which you have melted a little 'saffron. The last
add the ricotta and pepper, stirring to mix and jumping around.
If you have not formed a nice thick creamy sauce, add more cooking water.
Serve and sprinkle with plenty of mullet or grated slivers.

Flatland vs Spaceland ... differences in the pot


I wanted to post something that spoke of D ifferenze , the theme of the episode of Parallel broadcast today at 19:00 via web on Radio Radicchio, where I'll be very funny host of Eleonora and Giulia.



A theme that I think fits perfectly with the kitchen, or at least my kitchen: I love it to play on differences in color, flavor, intensity, texture, temperature, cooking ...
Playing with all these elements is not only fun to cook (and I really enjoy it) but it makes it more enjoyable and exciting to eat what is proposed.

I have also written in ' last post as I think it's important to enjoy what you eat, and all these differences, the presence / absence, or increasing contrasts of flavor

is why the act of thinking differently even an ordinary vegetable soup, transforms it into something meaningful and with a value different. Offer it becomes an opportunity to talk about what led us to present it well, adding that aspect friendly knows that both characterize the Mediterranean diet.


This time I thought of starting a recipe from what I have in the fridge, or a food that inspires me or that I am in some stores, or a smell, a smell, a taste ... but a memory, that of a book that I loved it.
comes to mind because I do not, pedaling to the office, the thoughts have flown to this book, but the fact is that the story and the characters gave me no respite for the whole day I had to tell ... in the pot;)

The book in question is Flatland, written in 1884 by Edwin A. Abbott. A fantastic story, beautifully, that starting from the description of a world impossible, absurd, with 2 dimensions, populated by beings plans (triangles, squares, pentagons, ...), get to show our inability to accept a different point of view from ours.


In the book, the character narrator, a square, after having vainly tried to explain to the inhabitants of LineLandia (a linear world to a single dimension) the existence of the second dimension , discovers that there is a world completely different from his, the world of Spaceland, a world with a third dimension .

In the book the protagonist tries in vain to make known the existence of higher worlds to his fellow citizens, and will have more luck trying to imagine the vision of a world in 4 or 5 sizes alla Sfera.

Alla fine verrà preso per pazzo, eretico perfino ed imprigionato a vita. Un destino d'incomprensione che toccò anche ad Abbott.
Sarà solo con l'enuciazione della teoria della relatività che si parlerà di dimensioni superiori alla terza e che il libro di Abbott verrà riscoperto.


Nessuna ricetta, come dicevo. Infatti per questo piatto mi sono limitato a trasformare la classica zuppa di verdure in un piatto dove tutte le verdure sono tagliate a fettine o rondelle o filetti, proprio come i personaggi di FlatLandia.

Ed a spezzare, ad irrompere in questo mondo piatto, e bidimensionale, a poached egg, the Sphere.
Well not really a sphere, but that was my first attempt at a poached egg, I felt so much Julie Powell when he tried to do in his Julie & Julia: I ran away from all the parties and not wanted to learn to shut up himself.

the end was more like a flower to a sphere, also because of the intense color from the saffron that won I thought I would melt in the cooking water.

But the difference between the two worlds we see the same, or not??! ;)

Can Prolapsed Uterus Go Back Up

kamut spaghetti with cheese cave and cream of kale Thursday



" we are in danger of losing it, We must act now ... "
looked like the emergency room of ER, but it was my cooking ... but the cabbage I had on hand was saved. After being forgotten for more than a week in the pantry on the terrace, would be a shame to lose those two beautiful heads, even as they may be the last of the season.

too ripe and soft to use them in soups or the like, I made a concentrated cream with which I got two beautiful plates. This is the first, fast and simple but very special foods enriched with .

start with the pasta I had seen the Monograno Felicetti first year scorso in un contest che girava e poi in un fornaio. M'aveva subito incuriosito, e non poteva essere diversamente con il suo packaging così elegante ed essenziale lascia intendere che quel che conta è all'interno non all'esterno.

Ed in effetti non mente: questa volta ho ho trovato solo la versione al kamut che, oltre ad una cottura perfetta, per quanto io l'abbia stressato non poco, ha un sapore davvero ricco e corposo.

Spaghetto ricco, cavolo gustoso.... ci voleva proprio un formaggio speciale, come il Formaggio di Grotta delle Latterie Vicentine.


Si tratta di un formaggio fantastico, gustosissimo, dal sapore pieno, intenso, leggermente piccante. Me ne aveva parlato l'amico Domenico della Coldiretti e devo ammettere che è davvero fantastico.

Il formaggio, dopo una prima stagionatura di circa 60 gg, viene posto per almeno 5 mesi nelle Grotte del Castello a Schio. Si tratta di un rifugio scavato sotto il Castello  di Schio durante la seconda guerra mondiale.

Avevo pensato inizialmente ad una fonduta, ma temevo che il suo sapore intenso coprisse gli altri, quindi ho optato per una sgranatura del formaggio: bellissimo sentire lo spaghetto avvolto dal cavolo ed ogni tanto incontrare il pezzetto di formaggio che riempie di sapore il fondo del palato...



properties of cabbage I have spoken in several posts, but I never talked about the cheese.
is often banished from the table who wants to lose weight for its fat content, and sometimes with it other dairy products.

I am not a specialist, I'm just a blogger, then I start from the beginning: I do not like to think of a diet as a cure but as a lifestyle choice.
I therefore find it impossible to imagine the punishment and inflict hardship every day ... would be suffering and try to secure the overdriven mode as soon as possible (which are usually all the people on a diet ).

When preparing a dish or create a recipe, I think using best to feed healthy foods, in season, balanced and unbalanced. But I also think
enjoy what I eat, that meets with his presentation, combinations and contrasts, the curiosity it generates, in addition to the flavors, and I think that the articles since last autumn, can testify.

That said, if, in addition to milk daily, is recommended to eat 2 times a week on cheese, with portions of 100 grams to 50 grams of cheese or cheese for the season .... because negarmelo?? Indeed
me taste his own, and as 50-100 gr are few, just try one more good there!



Before closing, I invite you to tune web Radio Radicchio , Thursday 10 at 19:00, when I am very funny host of Eleonora and Giulia, conducting parallel transmission .


kamut spaghetti with cheese cave and cream of kale

Ingredients
For two people

Val Banks - crossed

06-02-2011
Era da un pò che avevamo in mente questo itinerario in attraversata, incuriositi da una vecchia guida di Tremolada&Gallo.
Qualche perplessità ci era sorta leggendo i tempi di percorrenza... 5h ! ma dopo le telefonate di rito ci rassicuriamo e riusciamo anche a stuzzicare la voglia ad altri e così, ultimamente, sembra un itenario decisamente in voga.

Oggi è il nostro giorno e partiamo io, Antonello e Macs dal ponte Val Popena auta diretti all'omonima valle per circa 300mt di dislivello per poi deviare verso dx, verso il Cristallino.

our climb, seemingly hopeless, the presence of crystalline

Climb yet ski dslivello of 300mt on foot until, at the base of steep, narrow channel, we have to load all over his shoulder to face the last 400 meters of altitude .

the entrance of the channel, where we change attitude.


to 2 / 3 of the canyon

The climb on hard snow is easy but hard to become more sensitive in the vicinity of a 'knee' icy and narrow that characterizes the crux of the climb.

the crux of salita

Siamo prossimi alla forcella e già sognamo che la neve sia bella polverosa... sogno che viene infranto da 2 altoatesini che partono prima di noi e che lanciano, con le lamine dei loro sci, dei fastidiosi sgraaat sgrat che ci fanno storcere il naso.

prime prudenti curve di Antonello

Poco male... partiamo anche noi con curve prudenti in un ambiente eccezionalmente bello fino a quando, circa 200mt più in basso, troviamo dei bei riporti di pochi cm di neve che ci consentono belle curve, quasi insperate.
La discesa si svolge lineare sulla dx orografica in modo regolare ad eccezion fatta per un breve tratto ripido e non ben coperto.

Free Microlight Plans Blueprint

fish .... and even fish! Thursday


As I said yesterday , Thursday is fish day, and if I repeated with a satisfaction recipe found in a wonderful book, something I had to prepare my own.

Already the night before he was checked from the bottom of the box of black rice belief. Pretty, rustic cardboard, and glanced timidly hopeful: I could not answer to her look so cute?? Nooooo;)

The combination with the fish came to me immediately, regardless of whether it was Thursday. Initially I thought the squid, but arrived at the counter did not convince me what I saw.
much more attractive instead of squid were quite fresh , though not quite to the day.

but I wanted something special, fragrant and tasty, who could keep up and enhance the flavor intense and full of black rice. Hence the idea of \u200b\u200bperfume, after cooking, with the peel of citrus fruits and celery, but not as aggressive as aromatic spices.


The addition of black olives, this time outside of the squid, has come a bit 'so ... I do not know why but inspired me so much and in fact the final combination is ... delicious.

Thus the first taste that you feel is the intense and bitter olives, completed but not tamed by the scent of wine, the flavor of the caper and the sweetness of the tomatoes.

But when it exceeds the thin barrier squid ... SBAMMM! And 'how to overcome the sound barrier, and everything changes: it dominates the sweet squid, fruit and lemon and aromatic celery. But the black olive

not spring, and reappears at the end with its aroma, which again is mixed with those of squid, fruit and celery ...
I assure you that all the dish is a concert of flavors, fragrances and also: for my wife, who did not want to try it the other night when I was finishing it last night approached and said: " that smell, I knows that it is good ... (sin had already gone the last bite;)

Even more good then if you think about the eating quality of this octopus: low fat (1.7%) and much phosphorus, calcium and iodine. So you can taste but not weighs :)


And to enjoy the most of dish, despite the photos, I recommend you eat on a bed full of focaccia ( this here ) sliced, soaked with the bottom of cooking, or maybe even better on the bread without salt, Tuscan style.

In the picture, however, the accompaniment is a salad of endive and oranges, seasoned with a pinch of chopped parsley and lots of crushed fennel seeds in a mortar, seasoned with olive oil, lemon juice and salt. I was bitter endive
eaten raw, but once you remove the outer leaves is even sweet, and then make a fennel and orange aroma and taste ... delicious and perfect with this fish.

With these recipes, I participate in the contest Citrus proposed by Cynthia's blog "The cookbook Cynthia "


squid with black olives stuffed with black rice, citrus fruits and celery


Ingredients Serves 2
  • 4 calamari not too big
  • 120 grams (approximately) of black rice (black rice)
  • 1 / 2 celery stalk
  • the zeste of 1 / 2 orange and 1 / 2 lemon 1 bunch of parsley
  • 1 / 2 clove garlic
  • some fresh tomatoes 1 handful black olives (those with heart and love are the most tasty)
  • 1 / 2 handful of salted capers
  • 1 / 2 cup white wine salt


Preparation The night before Soak the black rice, so that they soften.

Boil rice in salted water. It will take about 30-40 minutes to cook, and still remain beautiful hard, chewy but not hard.

Clean the squid trying to keep the bags intact. Put aside your head e tentacoli, che potrete usare per altre preparazioni (tipo un piccolo antipasto)

Tagliate a cubetti piccoli piccoli il sedano, grattuggiate le zeste, ed unitevi il riso scolato ed intiepidito. Mescolate per bene e riempite con il composto le sacche dei calamari.

Fermate l'apertura con uno stuzzicadenti e depositate i calamari in una pirofila di misura (in modo che non avanzi troppo spazio) che avrete in precedenza unto.
Oliateli e salateli, cospargeteli con i pomodorini tagliati in quarti, le olive nere a pezzetti, i capperi dissalati, il prezzemolo tritato e l'aglio a fettine e per ultimo bagnate con il vino.

Infornate a 180-190 °C per circa 30-40 minuti, girandoli almeno 3-4 volte, serviteli caldi on vegetables or even better on slices of rustic bread soaked in the cooking of polenta or smooth and warm.

Praise Dance Uniforms

fish!



On Thursday morning the city is the market, and the market is a feast with fish ... fantastic. And if you arrive early, say at 7.30, you can choose the best by spending too little.

I do not much fish consumption, and until recently I hated. But I admit that I eat more and more I like it. So peek at the banquet in search of the freshest fish has become a pleasant ritual.

And if I can find the right recipe, I will unleash your imagination and passion.

For the first the first recipe I found on a book that was given to me by my brother, Fabrizio, and by his friend Antonio, and I immediately fell in love: simple, fast, cheap, tasty.
With only 80 cents and just over 20 minutes here is a ready-watering dish.



If we accompany dunking a delicious cake full of tomatoes, like what you see and that has perfumed the house all afternoon ... then miss her so to touch heaven.

But very little, because when I'm home filled with the smell of bread I'm really ecstatic, I will unleash endorphins, embrace everyone and everything seems beautiful .... :)

Anyway, as much as missing has arrived with the second course, a recipe of my own, but ... I tell you this next time.

Even if you know, I am glad to remember that the anchovies, like most of the oily fish is rich in polyunsaturated fats (omega-3), the effective anti cholesterol, which in this dish supported by the presence of 'Garlic.
anchovies are also rich in protein, iron and phosphorus, so a good and healthy fish.

then accompanied by a good whole wheat bread, high fiber, which help the work of the intestine, and olive oil, other fatty acids that fight cholesterol direi che ce n'è abbastanza per non farsi mancare una volta a settimana questi fantastici pesciolini.


Vorrei dedicare ad Antonio e Fabrizio, miei preziosi " fornitori" di bellissimi libri di cucina, ed alla nostra amicizia: proprio come questo piatto è semplice, sincera, non costa niente ma da un sapore alla vita che... sarebbe un guaio se mancasse.

  • a dozen tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes soaked in hot water
  • salt oregano
Preparation

Dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Sift flour, add 2 tablespoons of oil in the center and the water with the yeast. Knead adding a little hot water for a time until dough is soft and moist, not sticky (or just sticky).
Work for a few minutes then pour salt on a pastry board and incorporate it gradually.
Continue to work for at least 15 minutes banging spesso l'impasto sul tavolo, più volte ripetutamente. Questo contribuisce a rendere elastico e morbido l'impasto.
Fate lievitare il composto, unto d'olio, per 1 ora in una terrina capiente unta a sua volta, in un ambiente caldo, coprendo con un piatto.
Versate l'impasto sulla spianatoia allargandolo, ma senza schiacciarlo, piuttosto infilate le mani sotto e tirate verso l'esterno.
Ponete la sfoglia in una teglia unta a lievitare per altri 45 minuti, coprendo con cura.
Prima di infornare, distribuite sulla superficie i pomodorini tagliati a metà, schiacciandoli dolcemente. Ungete d'olio, cospargete di sale grosso ed origano.

Infornate a 200°C fino a quando sarà ben cotto. Se necessario fate brown spending a few minutes under the grill.

When the simple things crazy ...

Subtitle:

"The bread and omelette .... not beat '



What can I say ... I am made like this: sometimes the simplest things are the ones that make me more crazy, if we are poor food and recycling, such as potatoes, eggs and stems of the artichokes advanced ...

You also do not believe me, but I assure you that when last night, while watching this frittatona grow in the oven, the crust over and form ... I also swelled the heart)

And the connection with the film Basilicata Coast to Coast , e con la canzone " il pane e frittata di mia madre non si batte ", è stato immediato.


Quando poi ho dato il primo morso alla frittata... uuuhhhmmmm.....  dovevo fare anch'io il pane e frittata . Ma non potevo usare un pane qualunque: doveva essere un pane bello morbido, con una crosticina delicata ma croccante, tipo le ciabattine, non gli zoccoli che fanno da noi, le ciabattine tipo polesana...

Vi siete già immaginati com'è finita? Stanotte ho panificato; avete capito bene, stanotte. Direte che sono matto, ma non mi pesa svegliarmi alle 2.30 (già lo faccio ogni notte) per tagliare l'impasto e formare the loaves, and even get up again at 5 am to bake the whole, if we imagine the result ...

And so as I saw the bread rise and browning in the oven, and the scent to look even the most hidden corners of the house, of course I looked BCtC imagining what would have been nice " sponzoso " (which means you do not know, look Basilicata Coast to Coast).

And to you who have been so patient to read 'I'm papyrus, I dedicate the beautiful song that inspired it, although my advice and watch this hilarious movie on the road everything Italian.




bread and fried my mother
does not fight,
because it is not that takes two slices of bread and to make an omelette
bread and omelette which my mother.

If the bread and omelette that my mother is my mother's levi,

If the bread and omelette which my mother off your sandwich with an omelette. remains

That can always do with another
; that maybe she was better,
       o peggio.


       Lì uno può sempre fare dei paragoni
       oltre al gusto del pane con la frittata c'hai il gusto della sorpresa
       dell'imprevisto, che è il sale della vita
       and even the bread and omelette


bread and omelette without my mother is an orphan,
; is a sandwich with no back ground, without memory, without culture
; is a sandwich that feeds you there for them as well,
però non ti appassiona,
                     non ti fa crescere.


       Il pane e frittata senza mia madre è un panino ripieno di un vuoto
       and eventually feel it,
the aftertaste
a taste
that is not yours.

Se l'impasto fosse troppo appiccicoso aggiungete poca farina sulla spianatoia, e se fosse troppo asciutto bagnatelo con altra acqua.

Dopo 5-10 minuti che lavorate l'impasto mettete sulla spianatoia il sale ed incorporatelo all'impasto poco alla volta.

Mettete l'impasto lavorato, leggermente unto d'olio, in una capace ciotola a sua volta unta d'olio e coprite con un piatto. Fate lievitare per 4 ore.
