Today’s recipe screams Christmas!
In fact, I am about to write the recipe for Capon Broth.
Simple and rich in flavor, it is a much-appreciated first course.
The capon meat in broth is very tender and thus pleasant to eat.
It is recommended to eat this dish accompanied by some special sauces such as a green sauce or mustard (a friend from Cremona recommended it 😉
