Ida's Recipes

My grandmother on my mother's side was an incredible cook. Everyone in the family has more than one story about her food. Memories and familial love flow richly from these recipes!

Here an archive of Ida's recipes along with some stories about the dishes. Please treat them kindly.

• Cabbage Salad
• Castaniolli
• Corn Fritters

Interestingly, Ida's Certificate of Baptism says that she was Baptized by Clement Cavalletti. That's just one letter away from "Capalletti". :-)

I'm sure I've missed some of our traditional favorites. If you're a member of my family, then please write to me and tell me to add it!
