Recipes From Abruzzo

Recipes

Chitarrina or Fedelini with Tuna Ragù

The robustly flavored sauce relies on good pantry ingredients: the best-tinned tuna and anchovies you can procure, excellent capers, and high-quality canned (or home-canned) tomatoes.

Recipes

Pizza Dolce Teramana: Layer Cake Specialty of Abruzzo

This show-stopper of a cake from Abruzzo has three layers of flavored sponge cake and two layers of rich custard for a decadent dessert.

Recipes

Torcetti (or Ciambelline) al Vino

These ring-shaped cookies, common in central and southern Italy, are made with olive oil and wine...perfect for setting out on the table with coffee or tea when guests drop by!

Recipes

Soffione di Ricotta

In Abruzzo, the soffione is a traditional Easter dessert, though its growing popularity means you can now find it year-round in many bakeries throughout the region.

Recipes

Sagne e Ceci - Pasta with Chickpeas

Legumes form the base for this Abruzzese country-style soup, a humble but delicious dish that uses not only the chickpeas, but also their cooking liquid, leaving nothing to waste.
