I Introduce Myself

I close the eyes and think at beautiful moments passed in the places that I have had the pleasure to visit.

The memory of the words exchanged with people that I will not meet more, feel smell of a cake eaten for case in a place for case and…not forget more the sapore..

Conserve of every place the colors, the scents, the culture.

I'm Italia of the south, I have 35 years and two beautiful twin children . Open this blog is for me like opening the doors of my house, propose my recipes and receive the yours, make known to you our traditions and know those yours, to make along travel through the wealth of the foods that my earth offers every day and portami to house something of yours. I am Italian, and I decided to write a blog in English to learn (I ask excuse for the errors!!) and because I would want to share all this with who as me through the kitchen it succeeds to dream…

Even with this dish remain in my beloved southern Italy.
We prepare the turnip greens in several ways: with some stewed tomatoes, boiled with the addition of raw  oil and lemon, on pizza, and to prepare the "calzone pugliese"
Today I offer this recipe very simple, which I think is the most between popular.
Ingredients

11, 2 oz. (250gr) orecchiette
28, 2 oz. (800gr) turnip tops
3, 52 oz. (100gr) cherry  tomatoes
3 / 4 anchovy fillets
2 cloves of garlic (or 1 leek)
oil, salt.

In a skillet saute the garlic in the oil and add the cherry tomatoes cut in half.
Cook 10/15 minutes and one minute before the end of cooking add the anchovy fillets.
Bring to boil salt water and dip the tops of turnips.
Cook for 10 minutes and add orecchiette.
When cooked, drain the pasta with turnips and add the tomato sauce, amalgams well for one minute and serve.
