Winter in northern Italy is sometimes sunny, and sometimes snowy and white, especially in the mountains. New Year's Eve is a time that unites relatives and loved ones at the same table.
Festive table in Italy
A huge number of dishes and drinks on the table has always been an integral part of the festive Christmas feast. Such an abundance was especially noticeable among the poor Italians, since it was during the holidays that all the best and most tasty appeared on their tables. In modern Italy, much has changed, and holiday tables are no longer bursting with a large number of dishes. Today, a celebration for Italians is just an excuse to get together with family or friends, socialize, eat deliciously and remember the traditions of their ancestors.
Agnolotti
In Piedmont, neither Christmas nor New Year's meals can do without agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti. This is a stuffed pasta that is so full of filling that it becomes a curve. Hence the name "hobby" (humpback). Agnolotti is usually stuffed with stewed beef, chicken breast, fried rabbit meat or sausages with vegetables such as spinach, chard or salad chicory. Add Parmesan, nutmeg, salt and pepper to the filling. And we begin with you our culinary and gastronomic theater! The main characters of our performance will be dough and filling. And then I will tell you what we need.

Cooking
Sift flour on a table. In the center of the flour hill, make a small depression, drive eggs in, add olive oil and salt. When the dough becomes homogeneous, form a ball out of it and leave at room temperature. But pasta agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti would not be this pasta without a gorgeous meat filling. This time we will use rabbit meat, velvet, tender and juicy. Marinate rabbit meat in olive oil with salt and pepper. Then cook it for 1.5 hours. Separate the rabbit meat from the bones (we save them - they will still be needed), finely chop and add ricotta, mascarpone, fresh thyme, salt, pepper, olive oil, garlic. All mix well. To prepare the sauce, fry the onions, carrots, celery until golden brown, then add the rabbit bones and simmer for 2-3 hours. After this, filter the sauce and add the cream. Cook ravioli for 6-7 minutes, and then put them in a container with ready-made sauce and simmer for 1-2 minutes. And the final touch will be grated parmesan, which we sprinkle with agnolotti gobbi ai tre arrosti. We uncork a bottle of Barolo red wine, for example, and enjoy this bliss! Good appetite!

Due to its geographical location and proximity to the centers of ancient civilizations, Sicily developed under the influence of a wide variety of cultures. Thanks to this, a visit to the island can give a wide variety of impressions. Starting out with Sicily, BlogoItaliano selected the 8 most noteworthy sights from our point of view to present the island to the reader.

Riccione, spread along the Adriatic coast just 5 km from the center of Rimini, is often compared with the secular salon of the Roman Riviera, access to which is open only to the rich and famous. In fact, this resort is quite friendly and democratic. You can have a great time here in splendid isolation, in a noisy company, and with your loved one, and with children or parents.
This is not an advertisement. This is a post born of long thoughts on the topic + very useful reviews from tourists who visited Rome on their own, both with a book / audio guide in their hands and with a private guide. Therefore, I will modestly describe 3 points on my personal list of must see attractions that I would visit with a living person, and not with a book.
The center of Rome is rich in attractions, like no other place in the world. From the abundance of remarkable places in the Eternal City, my eyes run wide. That is why BlogoItaliano has compiled a list of 12 of the most interesting places in the center of Rome so that you can easily get around the most important thing. And to make it easier for you to plan your trip, we marked all the most important places on the map, which you will also find in this article.
If you ask the Venetian tourist office what you should definitely see in the city, then you will surely get a long list of museums and attractions that will be an impossible task to get around in a few days. However, if time is running out, then only part of this list can be called what the bourgeois call “must see”.
Taxis in Venice are not cheap. However, in a city with many canals and islands, taxis are not only the fastest way to get to the right place, but also a great opportunity to add an experience to the trip. Since there is very little information on the Internet about taxi in Venice, BlogoItaliano decided to figure it out on his own.
In Rome, I want to return again and again. This is an amazing city in which every stone breathes history. Sometimes it seems that if you listen carefully, the walls of the Eternal City will tell their own stories. However, it happens that Rome bothers, and the desire to escape from the bustle of the city determines the search for attractions near the Eternal City.
