Michelin Chef Lino Scarallo mixes his love for Neapolitan traditions,
combines it with Christmas at the Scarallo household, and then – as he is known
to do – adds a twist.
Here we are - Scarallo's fantast first - Reinforcement Risotto. The chef’s
take on the classic insalata di rinforzo or reinforcement salad. The
traditional recipe found on Christmas
Eve dinner tables around Campania includes ingredients such as cauliflower, red
and green peppers, anchovies, capers and olives.
Scarallo decided to take these ingredients and make a risotto.
The same fantastic flavors...
The same fantastic memories...
However, with a twist.
Here I had a chance to talk to the chef about this
tradition. He tells me that the
ingredients are designed to reinforce…give one energy. Some recipes include marinated
vegetables. Leftovers can be served the
day after as a side dish to another Christmas classic – fried baccala’.
