After Serralunga castle we went to dinner with Karl and Hugo in Alba, right here. About them I have already written, so I will not repeat. 'll Put only picture of cooked veal, tuna mayonnaise under the sauce, the famous Piedmontese appetizer Vitello tonnato.
Walking through the city center, We went to cooking lessons to my good friends. I must say that the family Sandri difficult to compete in terms of warm-heartedness and the present family environment. I already wrote about them here:
italy-france.livejournal.com/2010/05/03 /
Family Sandri, a family farming company Metilde "has extensive vineyards in the area of Madonna di Como (not to be confused with the lake). Work on its prosperity mother Tilda, Papa Giuseppe, Osvaldo dyayushka and heir of Mario (an enviable groom!).
Mother Tilda has everything: chickens, and rabbits, and dogs, and cats. All domestic affairs for many years on its shoulders. But they are for it is not a burden. Tilda very a good cook and loves to do it. Her blue dream - to take part in a televised cooking show. But her natural modesty it always stopped. Since the general public confused mom Mario, was coined more intimate version of the lessons. :-)
meat sauce for pasta was made by it in advance, because the meat Stuffing tushilsya three hours. Made it very simple: the pan fried onion and garlic in olive oil, then add ground beef, spices to taste tomatoes (here in Moscow, you can use the Passat Parmalat is vprodazhe). Extinguished all this for a long time, periodically adds Vodicka, if the mass starts to boil away.
with Nadia, Lesha And baby Tilda made pasta with eggs, when the dough is ready, it is dried and a special machine cut it just as you want, wide noodles or thin. Then it is boiled and eaten with sauce as above, sprinkling with grated parmesan.
It was the first dish.
second dish, Tilda made in advance on its own initiative, was bollito misto (various types of cooked meat) sauce Cunha, the emphasis on "me."
Cunha - is something like a jam, its other name - Mostarda. It has yet to be eaten with polenta from chestnut or corn flour. We ate it already prepared, preparing it during the grape harvest in the fall, then sterilized and preserved. Done this delicacy as follows: on a slow fire cooked until thick pressed grape juice for 12 hours, then add pears, apples, figs, cut into pieces, and boiled it's still an hour and then rush frayed walnuts and hazelnuts, cinnamon, cloves, cooked for another five minutes, after which the hot mass is poured on a glass Banks and sterilized. Long explanation, the long cooking process, and eats a few seconds. Importantly, spoon a little more. You can capture свою, русскую, деревянную :-) Ребята привезли из России в подарок замечательный фартук с матрешками, у меня пока нет этой фотки. Боже, как была с частива мама Mario, seeing brought her a gift of Russian souvenirs, she was touched! Told her father: "Look, as we have something eto only see on TV, and then rarely!".
For dessert was a caramel pudding with almond dry biscuits. That's so much fun doing it.
And here's what happened:
But he also with nutmeg Mario, Passito di Moscato, "Soren. Autumn Poetry. " 
When will the book of poems by Mario, it will be necessary to translate it into Russian. What a talent! For all hands of a master! Baby Leonid and Jaroslav were given a bottle, whose year corresponds to their year of birth. The local winemakers have such a tradition: when the child is born, a part of any good wine party marked its birth date, name, and stored for family celebrations such as baptism, first communion, sometimes in honor of the newborn nazyvayut wine or planted new plants.
all cooked of course had to eat for dinner. Including Here is such a wonderful homemade bacon, sausage, prosciutto. Very pleased to be a family Sandri communicate with overseas guests, looked neighbors dyadyushka Osvaldo very much everyone was curious :-)
Roses, roses ... they are everywhere. Period when a lot of different colors. Until then there is beautiful! In the evening Mario wrote a poem dedicated to them.
It was already late at night, when Nadia, Alex and offspring returned to the farm holiday Rivett.
A is a view of the new home of Mario, where he hopes to move when getting married. And so that kids had the same wonderful, as Lenya with Yaroslav. Who is going to continue to a family affair! True, the bride has not yet been found. But I have not lost hope for a walk at his wedding.
