I'll take a little of each, a little extra Strawberry though.
ReplyDeleteThat's a "cool" picture of granita.
ReplyDeleteYour food fair sounds like fun.
From the thumbnail I thought it might have been spices. Now I see it's at the opposite end of the taste spectrum.
ReplyDeleteNo one does icecream and water ice like the Italians. No one! No one does lots of things like the Italians - happily!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments. I must admit it was the first time (yes, the first time) that I tasted the Granita Siciliana and it was delightful. Jilly is right but she's lucky because in France you can find everything everywhere. I mean that in Menton you will find all kinds of French cheese as you can find them in Brest. Not in Italy so, mostly, we know what is produced in other areas of the country but rarely we can find them all around the country.
