This is my definitive version of pasta with cauliflower arriminata which means stirred. It is a Sicilian dish from Palermo. It forms, along with pasta con sarde and pasta alla norma the culinary height of Sicilian cuisine. Of course there are many other dishes that are famous and delicious making Sicily a true culinary paradise. Of course Italian cuisine is also famous for it's vast regional differences and variety, but this I leave for another day. Getting back to the present dish of a somewhat complex nature, it is absolutely a taste of Sicily and a delicious one.

 Courtyard, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

 An original recipe that is a variation of escarole and cannellini. Here I used broccoli instead, Very healthy and delicious

 Late afternoon snack at the Seine, Paris. 

 Most pasta e salmone dishes (pasta with salmon) use smoked salmon but it can also be prepared with fresh wild caught salmon. It has a more delicate flavor especially when prepared with zucchine. A truly memorable dish.  

 Glorious water lilies. NY Botanical Garden.

 Leftover done with flair. Once in a while I must clean out the fridge. This dish is made uf of three itaems. Spezzatino di manzo, (beef stew), Cannellini and broccoli, and stewed eggplants Sicilian style. Very easy and delicious meal.
