Are the Green lasagna, I have fresh homemade with Borage (but you can buy safely the sheets of green lasagna ready), flavored with a sauce of fish and vegetables, that is quick to prepare and, Then, a saffron sauce supreme (recipe by Michael Roux), some’ more hardworking, why you must first prepare the shrimp broth and then prepare the sauce.

THE COMBINATION: Try this delicate and aromatic recipe with a still white wine, con profumi fruttati molto decisi. We suggest a white Abruzzo, il Pecorino cheese “Palio” company Citra Wines, with its scents of sage and exotic fruits, with a fresh taste, with a pleasant acidity, and a finale with balsamic. We suggest serving it cool, around ten degrees of temperature.
