Potato chicche with stracchino are a tasty, creamy first course that is easy and quick to make.
A few simple ingredients and lots of flavor for a comforting first course that’s very quick to prepare, ready in just twenty minutes—perfect for a family lunch or dinner. Stracchino is a fresh Lombard cheese, very creamy and delicate, made from the milk of “stracch” cows (meaning tired, that is, fatigued after transhumance from mountain pastures to the plains). In this recipe stracchino creates a very soft and enveloping sauce with a delicate, slightly tangy and fresh flavor—light, not heavy, yet soft and tasty.
