Silken Tofu and Cucumber Dip

Soft Fresh Mozzarella with Grilled Peach and Prosciutto
Makes 6 servings Note: When peaches aren’t in season, there are several good substitutes: melons, persimmon, or pears. One more suggestion, which is really out of the ordinary, is ripe mango. Mango pairs nicely with the saltiness of the prosciutto and the delicacy of the mozzarella.

Makes 4 to 6 servings Tuna is a very popular fish in the south of Italy. We prepare this recipe with a few simple ingredients also typical in that area, including capers, lemon, and red onion. Since the tuna remains partially raw, it must be as fresh as possible. Ingredients […]
Temaki (Hand Rolls)
Makes 8 servings Without using a bamboo mat, you can produce almost the same sort of sushi by hand rolling. But because hand-rolled sushi is not as firmly or evenly packed as the kind rolled in a mat, the hand-rolled type is eaten as is, without being cut into bite-sized […]
