Tacchino in fricassea (Turkey fricassee ala Tuscany)
70 min.Chicken fricassee is a popular Tuscan recipe inspired by the French fricassée: it’s a meat stew coated with a creamy mixture of egg yolks and lemon juice.
Cooking in fricassee style involves pre-frying the meat, browning it in a pan before slow cooking it in a stew.
The typical Tuscan recipe for cooking in fricassee usually uses chicken, but in this case I used turkey.Recipe by Carlo

Homemade Calamarata
80 mins, plus 30 mins of rest timeThis recipe is a great representation of Neapolitan cuisine, capturing the fresh, bright flavors of the sea. The use of calamarata pasta adds a unique visual and textural element, making the dish both beautiful and delicious. The combination of garlic, olive oil, and cherry tomatoes creates a simple but flavorful sauce that perfectly complements the squid. The suggestion to deglaze with white wine is optional but would add a lovely acidity that enhances the seafood.
For an even richer flavor, you might consider adding a pinch of chili flakes for a hint of spice, or some lemon zest to bring out the freshness of the dish. The recipe is easy to follow and approachable for any home cook, making it a fantastic option for a comforting and impressive meal.Recipe by Carlo
