Two years ago, by chance we got a culinary herb from Italy called Stridolo (Silene inflata). We live in the coastal woodlands of Sonoma County, California., and this seems to love our climate. I use this in pasta, and would love to hear more from people in Italy who use it regularly. #FoodSky

A perky plate of paco's purple pasta, pancetta, and pesto party! Tortelloni made from an ube pasta filled with spinach and ricotta, with a pistachio spinach pesto, plus loads of sautéed pancetta. Disappeared rapidly. Giving my new granite mortar and pestle it's first run. #FoodSky
