Sumptuous recipes for New Year’s Eve

Cinzia Cuneo 26 dicembre, 2010 Natale, ricette

With only a few days to go before the big night, I want to suggest some really simple recipes for you, presented in our usual manner, but which will definitely impress your guests on this very special occasion.

Indeed, why should we have to spend hours behind the stove during the festive season? If you ask me, it’s better to recharge your batteries without having to sacrifice anything. That’s why we provide you with simple and quick dishes, selected according to the seasonal availability of fresh ingredients and the specials advertised in the flyers of the main grocery stores.

And why not try and integrate some slightly more sophisticated and festive ingredients? Apart from that, our formula always remains the same: a bit of planning, a bit of preparation, some love… and there you have it! I’d like to take this opportunity to thank you for your loyalty, not only by regularly following this column, but by also consulting our website for further details, and I sincerely hope that you will continue to send us your comments and questions.

I wish all of you a very Happy New Year!

Try one of these recipes on New Year’s Eve:

• Chinese Fondue
• Duck Roast with Apples
• Seafood in a Puff Pastry Shell
• Shrimp and Leek Savory Pie
