Sociale Brooklyn

A basic prep for a thousand different applications. This dish is part both of the Italian and the Italian-American traditions... it’s one of those culinary treasures that can be enjoyed by itself or as an ingredient for an infinite number of different recipes: Roman chicken with peppers to start with... you can put it on pizza; you can make the naughtiest Italian sandwich; you can enhance an aperitivo spread (like we did on this video); a pasta salad; a quiche; serve it over ...rice or with other grilled veggies; put it on top of a nice piece of steak...we could go on and on for hours; nothing doesn’t pair well with these stunningly beautiful, shiny and delicious roasted peppers. ENJOY !! Watch the full video : https://youtu.be/gmIT3VLwCMg

Who’s ready for this gorgeous timeless classic? Saturday 10am CASA SOCIALE on YouTube.

Impress your guests with this gourmet mix of flavors and textures. Paccheri is a favorite pasta shape in our casa.usually the lisci are more common to find for this video we used the rigati type which literally translates as striped. They are perfect for any kind of raguy sauceor something diced like our cod because everything gets inside these wonderful tubes and create the most amazing little packs of goodness. You don’t need the wildest caught piece of super exp...ensive cod for this, it’s a pasta !same for the Guancialeyou can’t find it? Use pancettayou have bacon available? Use that.as long as you cook it until it gets crunchy you’ll be able to add a great flavor and enrich your pasta with the most satisfying layer of texture. BUON APPETITO !

We are starting to finalize the renovations of our stunning storefront. We finally decided on signage, our own precious @rondellmeeks suggested something blending with who we are; our philosophy; our community engagement... something that seems it’s been there for ever. So we started production of this wonderful handcrafted wooden piece that will go up soon (this is just a rendering lol). We are currently restoring the wood beams to make them ready to receive this gorgeous sign. Leave us a comment and tell us what you think !
