Parmigiano Reggiano – the king of cheese – Parmesan Biscuits

May 6, 2020 by Madeleine Morrow 2 Comments

Parmesan Biscuits with Parmigiano Reggiano. A wonderful hunk of 24-month old Parmigiano Reggiano arrived on my doorstep. It was wrapped in cellophane and tied with a ribbon. What a perfect gift for a foodie under lockdown. Just looking at its craggy edges and deep hue told me something about how it was going to taste. […]

The Perfect Homemade Pizza

February 15, 2017 by Fiona Maclean 14 Comments

Pizza cooked

Easy Homemade Pizza. I can’t think of another time I’ve been excited about a small sheet of metal!  But, as someone who loves cooking but who doesn’t generally use a lot of gadgets, I’m seriously impressed with my new Pizza Steel.  It came with two ‘slides’ – fine stainless steel sheets that you use to […]

Mele e Pere - Barbecued baby Chicken_edited-1

Mele e Pere Review – Soho, London: I was lucky enough to take part in the Cicchetti Trail during last year’s London Restaurant Festival.  And, one of the places I visited was Mele e Pere in Soho where I was both fascinated and enthralled by the homemade vermouth that we were offered along with our […]

Terra Terra, Pizzetta

Italy by way of Swiss Cottage – Terra Terra. If I were an estate agent selling property in Swiss Cottage, London, I would take prospective buyers for lunch at Terra Terra. I once lived in the area and had there been a local restaurant such as this I might never have moved. Terra Terra is […]

La Polenteria – Now Leggero – Soho – Simple Italian Food with a Difference

February 7, 2014 by Fiona Maclean 23 Comments

Polenteria Wild boar Ragu 2

Old Compton Street – La Polenteria: I like Polenta – Italian comfort food that you can keep in your store cupboard and cook up when you want something warm and filling.  Wiki has an amazingly prosaic description. Polenta is cornmeal boiled into a porridge, and eaten directly or baked, fried or grilled. The term is of Italian origin, derived from […]

Sparkling wine from Veneto

Italian Heaven in Elephant at Bottles & Battles A stone’s throw from Elephant and Castle Tube Station, opposite the Southwark Playhouse there’s a gateway manned by security guards in the evenings.  A club perhaps?  In a way, Mercato Metropolitano has become just that.  Despite being just three years old, this massive space of indoor and […]

pasta alla norma

Pasta Alla Norma – Sicily on a Plate: Perhaps this recipe would be better called Spaghetti alla Norma, since that’s the pasta I used.  But, this is a classic Sicilian dish with a story.  One of the most famous people from Sicily, Vincenzo Bellini was a great composer, particularly of Bel Canto Opera.  A signature […]
