Baked anelletti with pistachios: recipe by Giusina in Cucina – Italian cuisine reinvented by Gordon Ramsay


In addition to the usual and sensational timbale with aubergines or ragù, why not also try a timbale of baked anelletti with pistachios? It is the satisfying variant of the cult Sicilian dish that the Palermo native offered us Giusi Battaglia – for everyone now Giusina in the kitchen from the name of her TV show on the Food Network – when we asked her for a suggestion a special idea for Sunday. We were looking for a simple dish to make, but which would stand out, a recipe so as not to tire us out too much, but to hear ourselves say at the end: «But how good! . So the TV presenter offered us her special way of rediscovering a classic.

Giusina in Cucina’s baked anelletti with pistachios

«I have a great passion for pasta flans, because they are sumptuous, almost regal says Giusi Battaglia. «I love seeing them at the center of the table as great protagonists. They bring joy and are perfect for convivial occasions such as Sunday: they can be prepared first, to be able to prepare later. dedicate yourself completely to friends and family, without worrying about the stove” continues Giusina. «I thought of a timbale with pistachios to tell the story of Sicily by enhancing one of our most special products. Bronte and Raffadali pistachios have a unique flavor and aromaand in this recipe they give a very particular and delicate touch.”

Because we love home cooking, the real one

The simple, but tasty and spectacular dishes, moreover, have always distinguished Giusina’s cuisine: those who watch her on Food Newtork and those who follow her on It’s always midday on Rai1 given that he is now a regular guest of the landlady Antonella Clerici. Those who follow her on social media (@giusinaincucina) know this too, where she talks about her daily life with the same spontaneity: busy days made up of family commitments, office work (which remains her first job, despite the TV) as well as cooking. «I’m not a professional food influencer who can dedicate the whole day to recipes, but I know that those who follow me love learning about new dishes, so I propose them in my own way: I show what I prepare to eat at home, for lunch and dinner, filming it with my cell phone. All without retouching, filters or food styling: it’s all real life, like that of the people who follow me with affection that I reciprocate” says Giusina.

«I don’t have a great technique, I didn’t study to cook, but I was lucky enough to meet many chefs who taught me many things that I now put into practice he says. An example? «Once I was with Pino Cuttaia (two Michelin stars at La Madia, Licata, ed.) and I was chopping parsley, throwing away the stems as I always do. And he explained to me that instead parsley stems should never be thrown away, because they are the richest in nutrients, the most fragrant, and unlike the leaves they can also be cooked because they do not give off a bitter taste. A small thing, of course, but one of the many that I now carry in my baggage” concludes Giusi Battaglia, who we will soon see on TV in a summer and on the road version of his program Sicily Edition and in See you at the bar, with Paolo Briguglia, discovering new specialties, always in Sicily. Meanwhile, for a nice taste, here is the recipe for his anelletti.
