After the cold rainy winter, the first hot days of spring are the perfect time to hunt for wild mushrooms: the yellow-orange heads of “Galletti” mushrooms start to peak from under the fallen leaves of last autumn.

Galletti - little roosters - is another name of the Chanterelle mushrooms, let’s see how we can create a delicious recipe from these simple ingredients!

This simple and super savory recipe is a favorite of mine to make something unexpected with a delicious vegetable: Savoy Cabbage!

The big green leaves of this Cabbage variety are perfect to create these fun rolls and the filling is, as usual, customizable to fit your tastes. Here is my family recipe, what ingredients would you add to the mix?

Polenta for me is a festive dish, so it is perfect to make around the holidays for the whole family.
