When we do something to put his heart perceive others, ourselves, we gain great satisfaction and everything seems to get better. I, on the side of those who listened, who pointed out to learn as much as possible, I understood how much love Terry Sarcina School Altopalato puts not only in the culinary arts but also in the difficult role of the teacher.
 Assisted master Italo-chef   Calamaro, who patiently showed us many secrets, were seven classes in which, with the elegance of a Vestal, Terry sent a dozen of his fans know, his warmth, his passion. From the main sauces, pasta with eggs, from fish to meat, vegetables and eggs without forgetting the desserts, my   classic cookery course ended yesterday with the eighth lesson that students did not see us behind the stove, but sitting comfortably around at a table left by the old grandfather to Tony  Sarcina  who discussed etiquette and pairing food and wine. 
 Lots of valuable information that, for a formal dinner, make a difference: councils not to make guests feel uncomfortable, tricks  chicchissimi  to serve a wine that we did not amount to time,   savoir faire in responding to a guest who wants to drink wine rather than another and so on. And there have been indications techniques: methods and  champenoise    charmant, suitable areas for different types of wine, serving temperature, glassware, matches. We tasted 
 a white, Chardonnay  Hofstatter  of 2004, a red, Brunello di Montalcino 1998  Andrea  constants and a sweet pink champagne, which unfortunately can not remember his name, led by the student younger. 
 The affability of the owners has also provided accompaniment, masterfully prepared by Terry: witches, a chicken and vegetable pie, a quiche with eggs, spinach, bacon and cheese and a chocolate parfait. Finally, the 
 diplomino that is indeed a great pleasure and not because I feel like a chef tube, but because I believe I have learned a lot, that I enjoyed it, forgetting the bad moods and stress of the city. 
 With all sincerity I say then that was one of the few courses attended that I was not disappointed: I have often invested money expecting, according to the proposed program, the proper response to notice of the inadequacy of this course. This time it was not so: every expectation was met in full and maybe even more so that I'm not going to delay the course of the autumn haute cuisine ... and then do it now! :-) 
 Sometimes  mi capita di tornare a casa infreddolita perché, nonostante 
  il passato inverno temperato, lavoro in un seminterrato umido, dove si respira 
  un'aria malsana e dove i riscaldamenti fungono solo da ornamento: anzi quest'anno 
  il gasolio è terminato a fine gennaio e non è stato fatto alcun 
  rifornimento. Non mi resta che scaldarmi con il cibo: minestre, zuppe, creme 
  e vellutate sono perfette per innalzare subito la temperatura corporea e, inoltre, 
  si possono realizzare gustosi accostamenti con rimasugli di ortaggi, legumi 
  e cereali che, da un punto di vista nutrizionale, forniscono molti elementi 
  di cui abbiamo bisogno senza appesantirci troppo.

  Tips to prevent the shaking of dried chickpeas, I happen to use those in the tetra  Bonduelle  steamed or those of  Valfrutta . In this case I miss the cooking water to replace it with a light vegetable stock (water and vegetables).   For a lighter version, delete  la pancetta   |   
 In qualche commento   Sandra  , 
  lamentandosi della solita, melensa visione dei   budini 
  zucchini  , ha reclamato a gran voce un post salato. Beh, in realtà 
  non sto cucinando moltissimo in questo periodo: la sera torno a casa sempre 
  più tardi e stanchissima e, a parte qualche gustosa zuppa, mi rifugio 
  in veloci piatti surgelati...niente   4 salti in padella   però...lasagne 
  e preparazioni della mamma, quali coccole necessarie per sopravvivere alla malinconia 
  di Roma e della mia famiglia, particularly acute at the moment. 
As I said in my previous post, another food that can restore your spirit is chocolate: no matter whether in solid, liquid or cream, but must be of excellent quality. I love the dark, usually concato and I do not dislike the white milk that I loved as a child, I loved the Nutella , still crazy for chocolates, Gianduiotti , Perugina Baci, Ferrero Rocher and Pocket Coffee , and rarely buy them because I do not Contain ... I eat one after another!
  
 Chocolate is a different story: in these days of rain, much like the hot and still does not rest at night, the fragrant velvety comfort for the hardships and discontent of the day. I tried to Modica Stefano   of   Inari (many thanks again!) Has kindly sent me some time ago along with other tasty little things which I will speak slowly. What can I say? That is probably the most delicious chocolate I have ever tasted! Stephen advised me to use 250 ml per bag of cocoa. I followed his advice, and initially it seemed too much milk,  ma pian piano, come per magia, si è 
  addensata moltissimo tanto da sembrare, come vedete, quasi un budino. Ovviamente 
  se la consistenza vi pare eccessiva basta aggiungere latte: io, che non lo bevo 
  da tanto, stavolta ho fatto uno strappo alla regola e, siccome quando si fa 
  qualcosa è giusto farla bene, ho scelto il latte intero :-)  
 
  Vi ho aggiunto anche mezzo cucchiaino di zenzero, una delle mie spezie preferite, 
  e il risultato è stato sorprendente. 
 La preparazione inviatami da Stefano è costituita da cacao puro al 100%, 
  zucchero, amido di mais e aromi naturali. È prodotto dalla   Antica 
  Dolceria Rizza    di Modica e, a tal proposito, vi ricordo anche   Ciok 
  si gira  , l'  Eurochocolate   che si terrà nella bella 
  Sicilia dal 17 al 25 marzo...peccato sia così lontano!
