This truffle & herb dish was born from a fridge cleanout, but that doesn't mean it's not delicious. Maybe you have these ingredients in your fridge already, or maybe you want to visit us to try this meal out. Either way, we highly recommend it.

Do you love bread and cheese? Have a few Alimentari jars in the fridge you're looking to use up? We thought your answers would be yes. Pick up a baguette and cheese spread and you're good to go!

Risotto is an example of ultimate Italian savory decadence, bound only by the imagination. Here we've put together a simple but exceptionally flavourful variety using grilled artichokes, broth from our dried porcinis and the especially starchy carnaroli rice.

This quick and easy pasta will become your new go-to, and one the whole family will enjoy!

This kale pesto pizza hits so many flavour profiles: different types of salty from the pepperoni and cheeses, bitterness from the kale pesto, a hint of briney richness from the olives, and some nice acidity from the onions. A drizzle of Frankie's Organic Olive Oil rounds it all out, adding a touch of luxury to every bite.

Combine our house focaccia with other Ontario-made products to make this flavourful french toast. Though the dish is not traditionally Italian, this use of simple, local ingredients definitely honours Italian tradition. We're especially loving the chance to top it off with fresh Ontario strawberries, while they're in season. Breakfast at Alimentari looks good!

Italians love their cheese and nothing pairs with pillowy gnocchi quite like gorgonzola and walnuts. The best type to use is gorgonzola dolce, which is a sweeter, creamier variety that melts beautifully into a sauce. This rich, creamy dish is garnished with honey and walnuts from Rosewood Estates Winery.

This week it's grilled pepper pasta for dinner! This simple meal combines our fresh pasta with Italian peppers and cheese. It pairs well with white wine or cider - we tried Revel Cider's "Time & Place" and couldn't get enough!
