A Taste of Southern Italy


    In this class we will go to Southern
    Italy.  But first we will make crostini
    with fresh mozzarella and anchovy
    sauce as they do in Rome.  For
    homemade pasta we will go to
    Basilicata and make strascinati, an
    eggless dough shaped with six
    fingers that looks like an empty bean
    pod.  In fact, in my town they are
    called scorze di fagiolini.  We will
    serve the pasta with a fiery lamb
    ragù.  We will make a beautiful dish
    typical of Calabria, Basilicata and
    Puglie -- a torta of layered potatoes
    and artichokes, topped with bread
    crumbs, pecorino cheese, garlic and
    parsley.  To finish off, we'll make
    zabaglione flavored with homemade
    limoncello on top of fresh macerated
    strawberries.
