Posted by Christopher 1 Comment

Creamy Cannoli Pie with Salted Caramel

Posted by Christopher 2 Comments

Cannoli pie.

Cannolis are probably my favorite dessert. Here in the South you don't find cannolis in a lot of places, so it is pretty exciting when you can find them. And if you love cannolis it is fun to try to learn how to make them. Particularly when the holidays are upon us, I am all about the cannolis. What is a holiday dinner with no dessert, and no cannolis!? It just doesn't get much better than the ...

Classic Fettuccine Alfredo

Posted by Christopher Leave a Comment

Fettuccine Alfredo

Okay, this is my simple take on the simple Italian pasta dish fettuccine alfredo. The story goes that fettuccine alfredo was invented in the early 20th century by an Italian restaurateur by the name of Alfredo Di Lelio. Mr. Di Lelio's alfredo sauce is a mixture of butter and parmesan cheese. Certainly this was not the first invention of pasta with butter and parmesan cheese, as this was described ...

Moving A WordPress Blog to a New URL

Posted by Christopher Leave a Comment

I first launched this blog with the url southernitalianandsuch.com. After about ten to fifteen posts, I decided that I wanted to change my blog's name. Doh!! Was all that work wasted? Nope, it was actually a fairly simple process to change the blog over to a new domain, so long as you are keeping the blog on the same server. I currently use a Mediatemple DV Virtual Private Server. I run a few ...

The spicy fennel taste of the sausage with the pungent peppers and sweetness from the onion on a delicious yeasty roll is a combination as easy to enjoy as cookies and ice cream. I have made this recipe a few times over the last few months, and decided to finally share it ...
