|
Hello there, Reader, In last week’s newsletter, I shared Celebrating Anise: Old-World Flavors for the Week! If you missed it, you can catch up HERE. As we eagerly anticipate the arrival of spring, March brings with it a few wonderful occasions to celebrate. From Pi Day on March 14th, to St. Patrick’s Day on March 17th, and St. Joseph’s Day on March 19th, there are plenty of reasons to spend a little time in the kitchen and enjoy the simple pleasures of the season. With so much going on in the world and in our busy everyday lives, it’s nice to pause and appreciate the small moments that bring comfort and joy. For me, cooking and baking have always been a source of happiness. So if you're anything like me, let’s take this opportunity to embrace the season and celebrate these special days with a few festive and delicious recipes. Ricotta PiePerfect for Pi Day! Prefer savory? Try Escarole Pie or Spaghetti Pie instead! Non‑Traditional Irish Soda BreadA tender, flavorful twist on classic soda bread — perfect for celebrating St. Patrick’s Day (or any cozy March meal). ZeppoleIrresistible Neapolitan pastries filled with Italian pastry cream—guaranteed to make you smile! St. Joseph’s SpaghettiCelebrate St. Joseph’s Day with this beloved family recipe, a tradition on Christmas Eve and March 19th. READER REVIEW OF THE WEEK!Hi, Maria made these this morning only change I made was the flour I used, King Arthur White flour, and monk sugar. They came out so good. Thank you again.
