❤️Traditional Tuscan Style Osso Bucco❤️ To

❤️Traditional Tuscan Style Osso Bucco❤️ Today is week 3 of our Italian American Heritage month collaboration. The course we are highlighting today is Secondo Piatto or second dish. This course consists of beef, chicken, lamb, pork or fish. Check out #italianladiesdinnerclub where you can find other great dishes from @ms._melissa_bellini
@miciamammas and @theitaliancookie
❤️When the days get cold and grey, it’s all the more reason to have something rich, deeply flavored, and aromatic to lift your spirits. This recipe highlights the spirit of the Tuscan coast with a Maremma-style lamb osso buco, slowly cooked with tomatoes, celery, garlic, and onions until you can pierce the meat with the side of a spoon, and then finished with scattering of chopped parsley and lemon zest. This recipe is specific to the Tuscan region of Italy. It is typically called Osso Buco alla Maremma which is a mountain region in Tuscany. Ossobuco or Osso Buco is Italian for “bone with a hole” (osso “bone”, buco “hole”), a reference to the marrow hole at the centre of the cross-cut veal shank. 🔥The rich meat stews in the sauce until it is fall of the bone delicious. Warm your spirit and heart with this dish all season long. 📌 SAVE for later. 📍Recipe LINK IN BIO ↗️send to a friend

Saturday Story- Doors of Life DOORS- old, new, p

Saturday Story- Doors of Life

DOORS- old, new, pretty, blue, worn, wood, painted, basic- DOORS.
I’m fascinated by doors. Everywhere I go I snap a photo of a door that pulls at my heart. When I see an old door I wonder what stories it could tell about the people that it’s seen throughout generations of time. Families coming and going, little children growing, elderly folks, moody teens, and new tiny toes all making their way in and out of these different doors.
I lived in 18 “doors” I called home throughout my life. All spread across the world from Europe to the United States. Each a memory of a time and place near and dear to me. A place to call home and make warm with a pot of boiling pasta water on the stove. I walked in and out of these doors and left a little piece of me there. A treasured part of my past I take with me as I meet my next door.
I experience hundreds of “doors” shutting and opening in my life when I least expected. Anticipating a certain outcome on the other side of a door only to find that door locked. I grieved and banged at locked doors not understanding why they didn’t open for me. I rejoiced when others opened at the precise time I needed.
The more I live the more I see doors in a different way. I approach them slightly calmer, trusting there is a reason for whom they let in at that specific time.
Last June, I opened a new door. I opened it wide with a big heart to share my passion and love for stories, food and recipes. That space is now filled with- all of YOU- this amazing and growing community. I genuinely love my connections here and I anticipate the future with excitement.
Life is filled with DOORS- old, new, pretty, blue, worn, wood, painted, basic- DOORS. Really, they are just opportunities. A chance to experience a new path in life. What is on the other side we often do not know..., but that is life, unexpected and exciting, terrifying and joy filled ...
⭐️What door do you desire to open?

Elena ❤️

💛Challah French Toast Bake💛

Thick slices of Challah bread dipped in egg and cream and soaked overnight create a perfect texture and flavor in this beautiful French Toast Bake. I love when a simple recipe can turn into a beautiful presentation. My friend, @lucky_bites, inspired me to make @buttermilkbysam french toast bake and ramp up the design to make it stunning as well as scrumptious! I’ve even served it for dessert with whipped cream! I know- so crazy?! Instead of assembling the dish the night before I prepped it in the morning and refrigerated it during the day before baking in the evening. Everyone LOVED it. It’s an easy must try recipe. 📌 SAVE for later. 📍Recipe LINK IN BIO. ↗️ SHARE with a friend
