Traveling without moving: how to create a corner o

Traveling without moving: how to create a corner of Italy in the heart of Malmo.

A few days ago, Filip Åkerblom, a visionary, award-winning coffee roaster, called me to share a secret project he had been thinking about for a long time.
He runs @lillakafferosteriet , a vibrant gourmet roastery with a cafe in Malmo city center.
From breakfast to late fika, the doors of this old yellow stone building are open to satisfy your craving for good coffee.
“I love this place - Filip said - , it has so much potential, and I think it is a shame to close at 6 pm. That’s why I want to invite people from the culinary scene of Malmo and host with them unique taste experiences”.

Maybe because Filip loves Italy, the food, the coffee culture;
maybe because he had such a good time when he traveled to Puglia a few years ago, following an itinerary I had the pleasure to design;
so, long story short, Filip asked my help to bring Italian food at Lilla Kafferosteriet for one night.

And there is no Italian food without good wine: we invited Rob Ureke, the talented wine importer behind @vinspektrum , to pair my pugliese food with his wines from Langhe (Piemonte), in a 4 course vegetarian menu, where the South meets the North.
And we will not be alone: in the kitchen with us Bianca Ludusan Denvall from @reko.deli delikatessbutik and Vincenzo Pietrogiovanni @increasingentropy dj-ing with molto amore.

Save the date, June 10th, 7 pm at Lilla Kafferosteriet in Malmo and book your seat in the link in bio 👆

That time of the year. 🌱
In Sweden we call it ramslök, in Italian “aglio ursino” or bear’s garlic. It grows at the beginning of the spring and its name, according to folk traditions, it’s related to the fact that the bears consuming them after awakening from hibernation.
The best way to prepare it is as a pesto, with some grated cheese (Pecorino or Parmigiano), olive oil and nuts (almonds, pine nuts) or seeds (sunflower or pumpkin).
This plant grows in the forests, in the shadows with a few light or by the streams. You recognize them by light, herbal and delicate scent of garlic

Cherry blossom pasta 🌸 Bringing spring on a tab

Cherry blossom pasta 🌸
Bringing spring on a table.
I created this dish as an inspiration for your Easter table, a vegetarian, colourful pasta idea, with the perfect combo: ricotta/parsley/Parmigiano/Pecorino, sauté with butter and lemon juice .
It is going to take just a few minutes than making a normal ravioli but... why don't you prepare them with a friend or with your family? Cooking together is quality time and much more fun!

Creativity is a muscle: you have to train it.
How? Exploring new areas, learning new things, playing with new techniques and materials.
And even tortellini can fly, from pasta board to a napkin.
This is the outcome of the block printing classes I took with @dyelabmalmo and @slojdpraktikan

CIME DI RAPA 🥦 As a pugliese, I am pretty obses

CIME DI RAPA 🥦
As a pugliese, I am pretty obsessed with cime di rapa, that unique vegetable that is not broccoli, that is not a beetroot (even if in Italian we call it “rapa”), and that has a fantastic bitterness as we like it in Bari.
So, you can imagine how happy I was when I find them at @speceributik, a few blocks from our new apt in Malmo.
After preparing orecchiette and cime di rapa using the tops and the leaves, I boiled also the stems, sparing some cooking water.
And that’s how I had this nice 10-minutes soup with cime di rapa stems, 200 g of boiled chick peas (mixing them in a blender for 4 minutes), topped with crostini from stale bread, raw olive oil and chili.
Stem to leaves, zero waste pugliese kitchen

While I am preparing my next pasta class on multicolor shapes, I’ve created this chart for my students about how to color durum-wheat (egg free, vegan) pasta.
When I prepare pasta, my measurements are made according to my personal feeling of pasta dough but, especially if you are new to the world of handmade pasta, you need some guidance. That’s why I have prepared this easy chart.
Hope you will like it. And if you need more help, write me for a pasta class

Not all focaccias are the same, especially in Pugl

Not all focaccias are the same, especially in Puglia. There is the high and spongy one, the one with the potatoes in the dough, the low and crunchy one, the one with cherry tomatoes, the one with tomato puree, the onion one, the barese one, the leccese one.
But in Sammichele di Bari there is a unique focaccia, the "fcazz a livre", or the focaccia as a book, because the dough is rolled up on itself, like the pages of a book: you realize it when you cut it in section .
It is so special that it is protected by the Slow Food Foundation. My recipe is in the link in bio. Try it and let me know if you like it.

Lussekatter - le brioche svedesi allo zafferano di

Lussekatter - le brioche svedesi allo zafferano di Santa Lucia.
Il loro nome significa “gatti di Lucia” e, infatti, alcuni vedono nella forma di questi dolci delle code di gatto arrotolate. Altri, invece, gli occhi di Santa Lucia, che, nell’iconografia della santa, appoggiati su un piatto, rappresentano il suo martirio.
In realtà la spirale è un antico simbolo vichingo che rappresenta la luce e la vita, nonché il movimento ciclico del tempo. Un dolce simbolico e magico, come i giorni che precedono il solstizio d’inverno

.

Ingredienti per 10 brioche
25 g lievito di birra
90 g burro
1/2 cucchiaino di zafferano
100 g zucchero
450 farina 0
1 cucchiaio uva passa

In un pentolino, scalda il latte con lo zafferano e lo zucchero. Togli dal fuoco e lascia raffreddare fino a 30 gradi.
Sciogli il lievito nel latte.
Nella ciotola della planetaria, versa la farina e mescola il latte con il lievito. Quindi aggiungi il burro a fiocchetti, poco per volta, continuando ad impastare, sino ad avere un impasto liscio ed elastico. Fai lievitare per 2 ore.
Dividi l’impasto in 10 pezzi e lavorali dando loro la forma di una S. Decora con l’uva passa. Fai lievitare per un’ora, spennella con uovo o latte ed inforna a 200 gradi per 12-15 minuti, sino a doratura.

Sankta Lucia🕯 Quando la terra dorme sotto la ne

Sankta Lucia🕯
Quando la terra dorme sotto la neve e le notti sono più lunghe e silenziose, la luce calda di una candela si fa strada nel buio dell’inverno.
A ben guardare, si tratta di una corona di candele, fiammelle che abbracciano il capo di una ragazza bionda, con la tunica bianca, annodata in vita con un nastro rosso. Cammina lentamente lungo la navata di una chiesa, seguita da una processione di fanciulli e fanciulle che intonano in coro “Ute är mörkt och kallt” (fuori è buio e freddo).

È Lucia, la Santa della luce, che rischiara le notti più buie, a ridosso del solstizio d’inverno, poco prima del Natale. Regala a bambini dolci speziati: pepparkakor (biscotti alla cannella) e lussebullar (o lussekatter) le tipiche brioche allo zafferano che impregnano del loro fragrante profumo le case svedesi, le panetterie e i caffè.

Questa è la mia casella, la n.13, del calendario dell’avvento #ilcircolodelnatale, da un’idea di @ilovecookingathome e @ogguli.it.
Domani scopriremo la casella n.14, di @accadeintavola.
E nei prossimi giorni condividerò la mia ricetta dei lussekatter 🐈

Venice to eat: a mini guide. We start from Rialto

Venice to eat: a mini guide.
We start from Rialto market, by the bridge, divided into fish and vegetables stalls, where to find “pescato del giorno” (catch of the day) and seasonal veggies. Don’t miss radicchio Trevigiano and the pink-dotted one from Castelfranco.
Then, it’s time for cichèti, Venetian tapas, to snack with a glass of wine in a bàcaro (the local winebar with kitchen). We tried baccalà mantecato (creamed cod) at @osteriabancogiro (where we tasted also liver slow cooked with onion); sarde in saor (fried, sweet sour sardines) and moscardini (curled octopus) with polenta at @cantinadospade. At @bacarodafiore and at @osteriaparadisoperduto we had a seasonal soft crab called moèca, fished during its moulting period and then deep fried.
If you are into natural wines, don’t miss @vino__vero wine bar by the canal, in the vibrant area of Canareggio and their amazing cichèti; for dinner at @estrovinoecucina you can’t go wrong: seasonal local ingredient, sourdough bread, natural bottles in a informal bistro.
And if you feel like having fine dining, take a look at @zanzexvi menus (Venetian and fusion one).
Before to leave, don’t miss a tramezzino sandwich: the one in Venice are special, rounded, almost exploding from all the stuffing. Our choice was at Bar Tiziano.
