Food & Drink

Ursula Ferrigno

Fig, amaretti and ricotta tart (crostata di fichi, amaretti e ricotta)

When the figs are ripe and succulent, this tart demands to be made. Full of classic Venetian tastes and textures, a small slice with an espresso is just enough to lift your day.

Ursula Ferrigno

Stuffed sardines (sarde ripiene)

Sardines are stuffed in many different ways all around the Italian coastline. The rosemary and garlic in this dish identify it as Venetian.

Ursula Ferrigno

Spaghetti with clams (spaghetti con vongole in bianco)

An iconic recipe, celebrated throughout the coastal regions and much cherished.

Ursula Ferrigno

Baked fennel & cheese (finocchio al formaggio)

This dish goes into the oven very quickly and with very little fuss, however the results are so good. Fontina is a truly celebrated cheese from high in the alpine meadows of Valle d’Aosta – the flavour for me is of honey, fruit and nuts.

Ursula Ferrigno

Radicchio with vinegar and onions (radicchio in saor)

I’ve grown up safe in the knowledge that radicchio is special - a tasty, health-giving vegetable that is extremely versatile and grows well in the fertile soil of the Veneto and other areas.

Ursula Ferrigno

Fish soup with macaroni (zuppa di pesce e maccheroncini)

Every trattoria along the entire coastline of Italy will serve a fish soup like this - perfectly plain, pure and simple.

Ursula Ferrigno

Risotto with courgettes and mozzarella (risotto con zucchine e mozzarella)

I can think of nothing nicer to eat for the warm summer months.

Veal cutlets stuffed with mozzarella (cotolette di vitello con mozzarella)

Veal is the most widely available meat in the Veneto. It is light and easily digestible. This dish is simple to prepare and is particularly enjoyed in the autumn when mushrooms are in abundance.

Sweet potato fritters

These sweet potato fritters are ideal when you have a little more time in the morning - for example, for a brunch at the weekend. If you make more than you need, you’ll have some for midweek, too. This recipe is packed full of plant-based ingredients and flavour, making it ideal for encouraging gut diversity. I like to make a big batch to keep in my freezer for when I need a quick, nutritious breakfast (top with a poached egg), stress-free lunch (served with a salad) or simple snack (with a dip).
