Autumn seasonal sicilian menu
Posted on Friday 05th of November 2010 under Etna | Food and Drink | Lava | Recipes
I love Autumn and its wonderful products and last week I made a lunch using four seasonal ingredients: Porcini mushroom, pistachios and chestnuts from mount Etna, Feijoa form Acitrezza and Lampuca, courtesy the Mediterranean sea.
I used Etna's porcini in a simple pappardelle pasta dish with Parmesan and parsley. Simply great!
Then I prepared Lampuca with a Feijoa sauce.
Lampuca, which is dolphin-fish (mahi-mahi), is in season right now, and is a fish I really love. It belongs to the bluefish family and its meat is firm, tasty and versatile.

The first of May - and the traditional celebration of workers rights and achievements - is celebrated by most Italians by taking a well-earned break and enjoy a day in the countryside, since the date also coincides with the first really sunny and warm days of the year.
