I know that dish, it was shown on Everyday Italian starring Giada de Laurentiis. It looks delicious and I am planning to make it this weekend. My favorite italian dish is Beef and Cheese Manicotti. It was slightly similar to Lasagna but the pasta is round and big and the cheese mixture is stuffed inside the manicotti. Then topped with marinara sauce at the top, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella cheese and bake it.

I reallly like gnocchi. It is really good and you cant get it everywhere. My second favorite would probably be lasagna or like linguine with spinach and olive oil. I think ther a numbe of really excellent italian dishes. i love all of them and like them very much. I think there are many things that I like thar are Italian.

gnocchi is great! my grandfather would make those from scratch and use the back of a fork to make that curl and "design" lol it is hard to find fresh but around by me you can always get it frozen, but it just isnt the same. your choices are making me hungry :) i grew up in an italian household so i have a very special place in my heart for italian food.lol

I am Italian, and I really live our dishes. the best one is ravioli, that is a pasta filled of vegetables or meat. you can dress them with whatever kind of sauce. I like very much mushrooms sauce. I don't like very much Gnocchi, that's a first meal made of potatoes. I love lasagne, with meat sauce and a lot of "besciamella". for dessert, I love panettone.

i agree with you that italian food has the perfect flavor combinations, but thats most likely because i am partial to italian food.lol i think it is the creamyness of the sauces and how the different ingredients just blend so well with each other and you can use the same cheeses with different main ingredients and get a totally different flavor out of the cheese.
