Happy Spring to all of you, hungry people, Debi and I are finally back in front of the stove!!! After two episodes dedicated to holidays and desserts, we are today cooking a great light lunch: Pasta al Vino. We wanted to treat you with a nice dish of spaghetti, which is ideal for a light lunch, a good date, or even a weekend family moment... Because of spring break we had to shoot with our kids at home, we tried to bribe them with a cool movie and some freshly made pop-corns, but I guess it runs now in the family... when they realized we were taping a new episode of The Tuscan Gun, they ran into the kitchen and demanded to be featured as any cook in this household deserves... Therefore, a video that Debi and I scheduled to shoot in a bit less than an hour, has taken us over three hours of cooking, breaking fights, correcting small mistakes etc... I have to say, since my kids are displaying a certain natural attitude toward the camera and our now three year old project, I was more than happy to turn off the DVD player and let both of them help out. Remember, if your kids can play with a Nintendo they are definitely able to chop an onion, get them in the kitchen and Teach Them Well!!! Please join us today for a lunch, we hope you are enjoying the beginning of spring; take advantage of this new season, start now working on your vegetable garden or just reward your kitchen windows with a couple of pots of fresh herbs. A new bonus episode will come your way soon, as I was able to find a great batch of Fava Beans at the Farmers' Market this week; since Debi is shooting Entourage in the next month, I will fly solo and show you how to prepare a great Fava Bean Pure to use for the best Bruschetta you can make!!! Happy Spring and Buon Appetito Debi and Gabriele www.underthetuscangun.com Less
