Genovese is a pride of traditional Neapolitan cuisine: a thick sauce made from the slow cooking of onions and meat. Cooking ragù is an act of love, a nourishment of the soul, prepared following not so much a recipe but a ritual. The main ingredient in any ragu recipe is time, and the result repays the wait: a dish that brings everyone together. We end on a sweet note with cream and black cherry pizza, a very old Neapolitan recipe reminiscent of the scents and flavors of yesteryear, grandma's house.

Valentine's Day all year round

For this lunch or dinner I propose the dish of the heart: The Genoese. This rich tomato-free ragu, prepared with lots of onions that turn into a delicious puree when cooked, is highly flavorsome and presents a sweet note. It's not a simple meat sauce but it is the maximum expression of love that a Neapolitan shows when he decides to cook you something special, good and long to make.This delicious sauce will season the pasta. The meat will be served as a second course with a side dish of baked potatoes. We will conclude the meal with another ancient Neapolitan specialty: the sweet Migliaccio.
