Tonight we are going to make&#8230; Creme Brulee!
It is a very good dessert and the best part is to use the torch to caramelize the sugar.
Here is the recipe that I summarized and adapted from the book &#8220;Mastering the Art of French Cooking&#8221; (by Julia Child, Simone Beck, Louisette Bertholle).
Ingredients:

1/4 cup granulated sugar
4 egg yolks

A few days ago I bought some really good peaches and I used some of them for a fruit salad. What could I do with the other peaches? I thought it could be a good idea to use it to cook some pork (I know that pork with apples is really good, so why not [...]]]></description>

This is a quick tasty pasta. I love to make it with home-made spaghetti, but you can also use Barilla or De Cecco pasta (my favorite brands). Organic lemons are a must, because you need lemon zest (and you know&#8230; lemons that are not organic have a weird wax on their skin. Bleah&#8230;!). I like [...]]]></description>

After living 2 years in the Bay Area, now I know where I want to go out for dinner.
Other than good fast-food places (like In-n-Out Burger and the Falafel Drive-In), it took me a long time to find good restaurants. Finally, now I know where I would like to have dinner.
My 3 favorite restaurants are:

&#8220;Torcetti piemontesi&#8221; are Italian cookies similar to breadsticks (but covered with sugar). They come from Piemonte, a region (county) of Italy. Their shape is similar to a close &#8220;U&#8221; and they are very crunchy. I really like them! Here is the recipe.

Bolognese Lasagna is a very typical Italian food. It is made of layers of lasagna, bechamel sauce, cheese (optional) and Ragu sauce (it is a sauce made of ground meat, carrots, onion, celery and tomato sauce). You can use the Ragu sauce also to dress any kind of pasta. What I like to do, is [...]]]></description>

My friend Chiara Cabrini (she is a relative of the famous Saint Francis Cabrini) gave me a recipe book as a present. On the first page she wrote the recipe of &#8220;piadina&#8221;, a kind of flat bread very well known in the center of Italy).

This is an easy appetizer that can be also made some hour in advance and then warmed up in the oven. It is a recipe from my friend Luisa and I can assure it is very good.
