Pasta with Brussels Sprouts, Cheese and Potato (8-12)
When my better half and I were in Italy recently he ate a dish called Pizzoccheri on a number of occasions. That dish originates from Valtellina in Lombary and includes buckwheat tagliatelle, potatoes, savoy cabbage and Taleggio or Fontina Cheese. I have not yet managed to find a local source of the pastaand though it can be ordered online I am sure the dried version is not the same.
