Let's do it at home! – The Italian kitchen – Italian Cuisine


The lockdown to mitigate the second wave of Covid-19 returns at various levels. We return to stay indoors, especially in the red regions. But will we also return to cooking a lot? Here are the recipes to prepare many products in our kitchens that we usually buy already made or semi-finished

Here we go again. Unfortunately, we already knew a little. The virus circulates a lot, too much, albeit not uniformly throughout the national territory. For this reason, instead of a generalized total lockdown, this time the government has preferred to divide the Italian territory into yellow, orange and red areas. In any case, the advice, for everyone, to limit travel to the bare minimum, whatever the restriction color the region in which you live is subject. This suggests the scientific community, but also the central and peripheral government bodies. Shopping then becomes a problem. Our advice is to avoid doing it daily: rather, let's make a detailed list of things that always come in handy, especially long-term or frozen foods. We're not telling you to go raid supermarkets like there's no tomorrow, just a organize well in shopping to respect the advice that the authorities are giving us in this complicated moment of the contagion from coronavirus Covid-19.

All homemade!

And then, preparing everything that is possible at home is not just a matter of limiting travel, but also because what we prepare at home is tastier, more genuine, it makes us rediscover old customs and ancient traditions. remembering our grandmothers or mothers, it also allows us to spend some creative time with our children, as many are back at home doing remote lessons, putting them next to us to work in the kitchen. In short, you want to add the pleasure of eating the bread made by you or the brioches or, again, the bread sticks, the rusks …

Homemade: the bread!

For a beautiful loaf homemade serve 400 grams of flour (the most suitable is that of type 00), 200 ml of water, 10 grams of yeast of beer, salt and a teaspoon of honey, useful to promote leavening. Alternatively, you can choose to use some sugar. In any case, first you arrange the flour on a pastry board, pour the water, add yeast and honey and mix well, obviously with your hands, adding the salt. At this point, all that remains is to let the dough rise for at least two hours; you then put the loaf in the oven, preheated to 250 degrees, and cook it for about twenty minutes, after which it is necessary to leave the bread for another thirty minutes in cooking, but at 180 degrees. Before putting the loaf in the oven, however, don't forget to cut it with a knife. Finally, to make homemade bread more delicious, different kinds of oil seeds can be added to the leavened dough, such as sunflower, linen or Pine nuts.
