Italian Night

We went classic for Italian night. Carbs everywhere! I made a risotto that I make regularly, and Krissy made fresh biscotti that puts the store-bought to shame! Next week: Thai!



On the menu:

Fresh bread in Olive Oil
Break baked in a cast-iron pot and served up with olive oil. Oregano, paprika, and black pepper in the oil for additional kick.

Risotto with parmigiano
A creamy risotto with a white wine base and parmigiano flakes. Worth the wait (if you've made risotto, you understand)

Lasagna
A proper lasagna - lots of cheese, lots of noodles, and just enough tomato to bring it together. The slices were huge, and we loved it.

Biscotti
Fresh biscotti dipped in chocolate. Crispy on the outside and soft - almost cakey - on the inside. Perfect with coffee.
