Linguine with White Clam Sauce is a must on my Christmas Eve dinner table every single year. It’s the quintessential Italian pasta dish, especially in Naples and Rome. Here in the States, linguini with clam sauce is made with chopped clams, and I guess this adjustment makes sense, especially since the clams here can be quite large, from littlenecks to top necks to quahogs or chowder clams. Today, though, one is ever more likely to find smaller cockles on the market; if you find them, by all means use them. Link to full video and recipe in my bio.

Here’s another classic recipe from the archives. Caponata is an all-time favorite because it is so versatile. It’s a dense condiment of chunky fried eggplant and other vegetables and seasonings, jam-packed with flavor—sweet, sour, salty all at once. You can use it as a condiment on grilled meats and steamed fish; as a sauce for pasta; or as topping for bruschetta. Buon Gusto!

Bucatini with Broccoli Walnut Pesto The deep, rich flavor of this broccoli-walnut pesto reminds me of fall. In our supermarkets today, we find most vegetables and nuts available year-round, but that was not the case when I was growing up. Broccoli is a winter vegetable, and walnuts mature in the fall and were plentiful in the winter. The pesto is easy to make in a food processor. When it’s tossed with the hot bucatini, it makes a dish that will warm your insides and feel like a warm hug.

Lemon and Rosemary Focaccia – watch while I give you the easy, fool-proof method for making perfect focaccia dough every time. Every region of Italy makes some form of focaccia, but if we want to nitpick, it seems that focaccia had its start in the Ligurian culinary tradition. In Genova, the capital city of Liguria, freshly baked focaccia studded with basil leaves enhances almost every table. But as you travel to the different regions of Italy, the herbs and flavorings will change from rosemary to oregano to olives, onion, and tomatoes. Here I make it with lemon and rosemary, but the variety of toppings on the Italian focaccia is endless. You should feel free to change this recipe by using the herb that you have in your refrigerator, or your family’s favorite. Link to video and recipe in my bio. Buon Gusto!. . . . . #LidiasRecipes #LidiasItaly #LidiasKitchen #LidiaBastianich #ItalianFood #LidiasTheArtofPasta #LidiasOliveOil

Celebrate Like an Italian – Classic Italian Wedding Soup. In the dialect of the Lucani (as natives of Basilicata are known) maritare means “to wed,” and I have always thought that this wonderful soup was so named because it was customarily served at wedding celebrations. Recently, however, I came upon another explanation of why it is called maritata—because it weds vegetables (in the soup base) with meat (in the polpette), and with this added protein it becomes a complete and balanced one-course meal! Join me in my kitchen as I prepare this classic recipe that marries vegetables and meatballs in a hearty, delicious soup! Link to video in my bio.

Baked Swordfish with Roasted Tomatoes and Mint-Parsley Potatoes. Join me in my kitchen as I show you the preparation for a complete dinner, deliciously light and easy to make. Even though the recipe says this is baked, its taste and texture are more like steamed fish. This is a delightful way to infuse the swordfish with the flavors of the lemon and capers, and a touch of acidity from the vinegar. As with most fish, be careful not to overcook it, since the time varies according to the thickness of the fish. The swordfish is baked with some deliciously roasted tomatoes – plus I show you a simple preparation for some brightly flavored potatoes in a mint-parsley sauce that perfectly complement the lemon and capers of the swordfish.
