Lidia invites us back into her kitchen where her story began. She beckons us with fresh baked Focaccia di Recco, filled with stracchino cheese. Then Olivia makes a salad with salty pecorino romano cheese, sweet pears and peppery arugula. Lidia finishes the meal with an easy hearty pasta dish, Rigatoni with Sausage & Cabbage.
