Ricette della tradizione
Traditional Italian Recipes: Sauces, Cheeses & Salumi
Recipes handed down through generations: Bologna's official ragù, Florence's lampredotto sauces, pesto, fresh ricotta and mozzarella, porchetta and the breads of Emilia-Romagna. We rewrote each one in clear English and link the original sources.
🥫 Sauces & Spreads
The sauces that make Italian sandwiches sing: Bologna's official ragù, Florence's green and red lampredotto sauces, Genoa's pesto and Modena's cunza.
🧀 Fresh Cheeses
Two fresh cheeses you can make in a home kitchen with good milk and a thermometer.
🥩 Meats & Salumi Dishes
Cooked pork classics and the fillings of the great street sandwiches. (We don't publish dry-curing recipes for salami or prosciutto: curing safely needs controlled temperature, humidity and curing salts. Buy those from a good salumeria.)
🫓 Sandwich Breads
The breads of Emilia-Romagna: piadina, fried crescentine and tigelle. Fill them with salumi, cheese and the sauces above.
