Cucina Italiana.
can't help but remember my many
trips to Italy and, specifically, the
I month I spent in Rome a few years
ago working in the kitchen of a res-
taurant near Piazza
Navona.
While the menu there
was decidedly Roman,
I wandered the city in
those weeks feasting on
food specialties from all
regions. I couldn't get
enough of the wonder-
ful northern Italian
risottos. The coastal
and river fish, available
at almost any restaurant
I walked into, were
simple and savory. I eagerly snatched
up bags of chestnuts, sold in the cooler
months at street corners around the city.
In my book, cucina Italiana — Italian
cuisine — is simply the best.
This week's menu is all about Italian
cuisine, with recipes from the different
regions of Italy.
While it isn't always easy to get the
branzini (Italian sea bass) so ubiquitous
in Rome, I've created a recipe
using the more available salmon.
But if you find branzini (or bran-
zino), grab it; you can substitute it
for the salmon in today's recipe.
Then pop the cork of your
favorite Barolo (yes, red with fish
— why not?), and start dinner.
Choose risotto or pasta as a first
course (or serve both!). Finish
your meal with a selection of
Italian cheeses and fresh fruits.
Then indulge in something
sweet, such as northern Italy's
most famous, rich hot chocolate drink,
a thickened, very decadent concoction
served in almost any bar or cafe.
Mangiare (eat up!) as the tempera-
tures drop, and we begin the countdown
to the late fall holidays.

RISOTTO
4 Tbsp. butter
1 cup finely chopped onion
4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
11/2 cups Arborio rice
pinch of saffron
1 cup white wine
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan
cheese, plus extra cheese for garnish
1 cup frozen peas, thawed,
optional
salt to taste
Melt butter in a medium saucepan
over medium-high heat. Add the
onions, and saute until very tender
and golden, about 10 minutes.
Add half the broth, and bring
to a boil. Add the rice and saffron,
and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to
medium, and cook the risotto stirring
frequently until most of the broth is
absorbed.
Add remaining broth, and cook
stirring frequently until the broth is
almost absorbed. Add the wine, and
cook stirring until the liquid is nearly
absorbed (the risotto should be ten-
der and creamy — if not add more
wine or broth).
Gently fold in the cheese, and peas
if using, and season to taste with salt.
Garnish with remaining cheese.
Makes 6 appetizer servings.
ROAST SALMON WITH
SALSA VERDE
6 (5 6 oz. portions) boneless
-
skinless salmon fillets
salt and pepper to taste
Salsa Verde:
1/2 cup water
1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 slice Italian bread
2 cups chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. minced garlic
1 large hard-boiled egg yolk,
chopped
1 Tbsp. drained capers
% cup olive oil
sea salt and pepper to taste
Place all salsa verde ingredients in
a food processor, and process until
almost smooth. Chill until ready to
use, up to 2 days. Allow to come to
room temperature at least 1 hour
before serving.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray
a baking sheet with nonstick cook-
ing spray. Arrange the salmon on
the baking sheet, and season with
salt and pepper. Roast the salmon
for 10-12 minutes, until just cooked
through (do not overcook). Serve the
salmon with the salsa verde spooned
over.
Makes 6 servings.
