Cannelloni
Cannelloni is a valid alternative to lasagne, and a little lighter as it is filled with sheep ricotta cheese. Similar to Cannoli they are dressed with Bolognese and Béchamel sauce, topped with Parmigiano Reggiano to get a crunchy crust.
Though it is not very quick to make, especially if you don’t have any Bolognese sauce ready, it is worth making them once in a while.
I usually make the Cannelloni using the Pasta maker this way the tubes are extruded and they are perfect if you use the crank machine you can make lasagnas and wrap them around the ricotta filling.Recipe by Carlo

My Limoncello
Limoncello is a popular Italian liqueur that can be easily made at home, provided you have the patience to wait. Traditionally, it is made using Amalfi lemons, but maybe you can use other lemons with thick and bumpy peels as well.
Once you try making it yourself, you’ll never want to go back to the tasteless bottled versions.Recipe by Carlo
