Barbecuing Meat the Sicilian Way

Barbecuing Meat the Sicilian Way by I Sicilian

Summer days are great barbecue days. Are American barbecuers spoiled? Having lived almost 40 years in the US of A, I include myself in this picture. For the average American household barbecuing with coals seems to be too much trouble. It seems that 63% of Americans prefer gas grilling over charcoal. It is just so much easier…

Awesome Mini Pepperoni Stromboli's

Awesome Mini Pepperoni Stromboli's by Denise Sherin

These mini Stromboli's are great for lunch, dinner or parties! Using frozen bread dough in 12 pre-sectioned roll form keeps your dough uniform, but you can use loaf form and divide it into 12 sections yourself. You can change the filling to anything you like. This recipe uses Pepperoni, but you can use sausage, steak, chicken or…

Penne Alfredo with Italian Sausage and Zucchini

Penne Alfredo with Italian Sausage and Zucchini by Denise Sherin

I had this dish at a local diner and loved it. So I recreated it at home it's an easy tasty dish. It looks like you spent a lot of time making it and it comes together so easily. In this picture I used just zucchini but I have made it with summer squash or a mix of both, whatever I have on hand, and it's great.

One of my family’s favourite pasta is the Spaghetti Aglio Olio, often cooked with ham, bacon & mushrooms. I’ve…

Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter

Cheese Tortellini with Purple Sage and Browned Butter by K. Garner

My family loves this dish. It's a classic and uses an herb that grows year after year in my yard--purple sage. Any culinary sage will do--the ones with the large velvety leaves. Don't use Russian sage or Pineapple Sage. Stick with the basic sages. We like short pasta with this, and often use Orecchiete or Bow Tie pasta. You've got to…

Summer Pasta

Summer Pasta by Risa Jane

I adopted this recipe from a magazine which is my favorite, "madame FIGARO japon" at a page 83, 2009/9/20, No.395 issue. The name of original is, "Penne Agli Scampi e Muscoli" and this is a tradditional of Liguria, Italy. But I have arranged it a little bit because I couldn't get scampi so I subustituted shrimp. Also, I used Sicilian…
