Valtellina Pizzoccheri in Cookut

Valtellina Pizzoccheri in Cookut, the 8-in-1 multi-use pot: a single utensil that replaces the saucepan, frying pan, and pot, and with its basket, you can fry and steam. Ideal for me, nickel allergic, this simple buckwheat flour pizzoccheri dish, completely gluten-free, is practically ideal for everyone. Since the first time I tried this dish in the mountains, I’ve loved all cheeses, regardless of the season or region. Therefore, I wouldn’t hesitate to make pizzoccheri even in summer.

in cucina con pina

My name is Pina, and my passion is food and cooking in general. On the blog, I focus on regional dishes like those from my birthplace, Sicily. I also feature dishes from Lazio, the region that has hosted me for over 40 years, but in general, I cover all Italian regions. Traveling and exploring is my second passion, so I couldn't leave out dishes from around the "World" on my blog. My blog is divided into simple and essential sections like appetizers, first courses, main courses, side dishes, bread and leavened products, jams and preserves, wines and wineries, and of course, travels. Desserts are included, and finally, there is a dedicated corner for gluten-free options. Easy recipes, explained step by step and always updated.
