Spaghetti with Fresh Soppressata

Go to Recipe

One of the most popular cured meats on restaurant charcuterie boards, soppressata is a hard salami from southern Italy. Andrew Carmellini’s family grinds their own meat to make it, but much easier is buying Italian sausages and removing their casings. To give the fresh soppressata extra spice, use hot sausages instead of sweet ones, or increase the amount of crushed red pepper.

Orecchiette with Pistachio Pesto

Go to Recipe

This amazingly flavorful pesto has a key ingredient that makes it stand out: Sicily’s famed pistachio nuts. Frank Falcinelli says, “Sicilian pistachios are incredibly sweet and fruity, not like the cheap ones we eat in front of the TV here in the U.S.”
