POLENTA GNOCCHI WITH GORGONZOLA, A FIRST RUSTIC

Polenta gnocchi with gorgonzola dumplings, a true symphony of first fruits Polenta gnocchi with gorgonzola is a very tasty first course, with a rustic character and quite simple to prepare. They differ from traditional gnocchi as they are not made with potatoes, but with polenta. Consequently, the procedure is also quite different. To prepare these dumplings, in fact, the polenta must first be cooked (using other ingredients, such as gorgonzola) and then divided into balls. The result is different than usual and is able to tantalize the palate. Also from an aesthetic point of view, it looks good, especially for a pleasant golden yellow (also thanks to the passage to the grill). As for the nutritional principles, I must admit, we are not dealing with a light dish. Also because there are many ingredients that exceed the number of carbohydrates and fats. I believe, however, that once in a while an exception to the rule is good, on some occasions it is allowed to yield to taste without thi...

  Crostini with smoked mackerel, colour and taste for a delicate appetizer Crostini with smoked mackerel are small appetizers able to satisfy the palate and the sight. Among other things, they are also the classic appetizers that allow you to make a good impression in the presence of your diners. Firstly because they are simply delicious, secondly because they offer unusual scents. In fact, they are the result of uncommon combinations neither within the starters category nor among the first or second courses. In short, these crostini with smoked mackerel represent something new, which certainly will not fail to tantalize the palate. True, in some cases the ingredients are not so available. The reference is above all to the spinal, a fish preparation that I will deepen in the next paragraph. However, the recipe is really simple, in fact, it involves simply composing the croutons. The only element of difficulty, if you can call it that, concerns the creation of the emulsion, which is...
