I recently had the privilege of visiting Italy, my favorite place, next to my home. I visited the town of Soave which is famous for its fresh, clean, crisp white wines. Not only is the wine fabulous but the food, as all of Italy, is fresh and simple. In fact, in all of Italy, the food is always fresh and simple. The ingredients are the feature of each dish. Quality and freshness are of utmost importance. When travelling I always visit the local markets to learn about the culture. The food is always picture perfect. I look for quality wherever I shop. In America, Eggland’s Best eggs provide me the freshness, quality, and flavor I look for.
When I talk with my viewers, readers, and students, they tell me they how hectic their lives are and that they don’t have much time for cooking anymore. The need more of my Stress Free recipes. To me, Stress Free translates to fresh, delicious and worth eating. This is another reason why I love Eggland’s Best eggs. They are the most delicious, freshest, nutritious eggs I can buy. They never disappoint.
In Soave, I enjoyed this light and lovely first course, Asparagus Sformato, (Italian for flan) composed of eggs, cheese and Asparagus. It was perfectly complimented by a Soave wine. I would serve this dish as a first course or a light summer meal with a mixed green or fruit salad. The consistency of EB’s will guarantee you a beautiful Sformato every time. When testing this recipe, I baked it in soufflé dishes but you can also make it in individual ceramic quiche dishes – you can use whatever you have in the house.
