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.
