 | SWEET ENDINGS - ITALIAN STYLE

No feast is complete without a sweet ending. Select a bottle of Moscato di'Asti or Prosecco from our wine shelf for the perfect match to any of the desserts below:
Panettone: A sweet bread loaf, originally from Milan, containing candied orange, citron, lemon zest and raisins. We were able to receive a few CHESTNUT and Chocolate PANETTONE! Definitely a must try!!!
Torrone: A sweet honey nougat confection. Choose traditional almond, hazelnut or assorted.
Toasted Almond Creme Cake: Layers of sponge cake filled with mascarpone cream and topped with toasted almonds.
Italian Cookies: No meal is complete without a cookie (or two, or three, or four!). Or order an Italian Cookie Tray from our catering menu.
Sfogliatelle: Means "many layers of leaves." This delicate pastry is filled with orange flavored ricotta—Ready to enjoy fresh out of your oven.
Tiramisu: Literally means "pick me up." The most popular Italian dessert, this delectable cake is made of lady fingers dipped in expresso layered with a mixture of mascarpone and cocoa.
Other favorites available: Cannoli, Amaretti Cookies and REAL NY Black & White cookies.

Colterenzio Pinot Nero
This month we decided to choose a wine of the month that is well rounded, easy drinking and still pairs well with many food options. Think of Pinot Nero as the Italian Pinot Noir, and the folks at Colterenzio produce and practice their winemaking as done in Burgundy, France, the KINGS OF PINOT NOIR!
This wine is approachable now and can be laid down for several years. Ripe, sweet tannins and a typical varietal character of Morello cherry and blackberry. Brilliant medium ruby red with a fresh, fruity nose, reminiscent of red currants and black cherry; medium-bodied, round with soft tannins and ripe berry flavors well integrated with balanced acidity. A stylish and elegant wine. Great for parties and meals alike. Cellaring potential: 2-4 years.

 | FOR YOUR ANTIPASTO PLATTER!!
|
Imported Sharp Provolone
Many people think provolone is boring—not ours! Our provolone is full of flavor with a nice sharp finish.
Dry Italian Sausage
An excellent pairing with the provolone, available hot or sweet.
Fontinella
Distinctive taste with a creamy, smooth texture.
Soppressata
This coarsely ground sausage is great for sandwiches and adds a rustic appearance to appetizer trays.
Asiago
Has a sharp flavor that resembles Parmesan and Cheddar cheese combined—use as a grating cheese to serve over pastas, salads, soups, appetizers, and gravies.
Cacciatore
Traditionally referred to as a "Hunter's Salami" because it doesn't need refrigeration and was great for long journeys.
Piave
It's flavor is similar to Reggiano-Parmigiano with a softer texture and nuttier taste.
Molinari Salametti
A tasty Italian dry salami with a spicy old fashioned flavor.

ITALIAN TRADITION—FEAST OF THE SEVEN FISHES
|
In accordance with religious beliefs, Italians observe a 24 hour fast prior to Christmas Eve which ends with a seven course meal of fresh seafood dishes. Meat is never served.
Over the years, the number of courses served by most Italian-American families on Christmas Eve has decreased as newer generations shy away from tradition. However, fish remains the central feature of this grand dinner.
Available at our store: Marinated Seafood Salad [shown], Baccala (salted cod), Smelts, Whole Calamari (cleaned), Lobster & Crab Ravioli.
