Ciao,
Tonight
was Vatican City turn to star on a plate, the smallest nation in the world and
probably the most difficult to find a recipe for. The city has sovereignty
purely because of the pope and the need for independence.
For
the Vatican City I decided to cook fetuccini alla papalina which apparently was
a request of a pope who wanted a traditional roman dish. The pasta was boiled
and the prosciutto was fried with onion and butter before being mixed with the
pasta. The pasta sauce was made with parmesan reggiano, double cream and eggs. It
was all tossed together before being served with quite a bit of pepper.
This
meal was very filling but quite tasty, it probably had a bit too much pepper
for my liking but it has been a long time since I have had pasta so I enjoyed
it.
Ciao
Sam’s
