Cooking Italy: Crespelles


Cooking through Marcella Hazan's book, Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking has been a wonderful experience. It is through my friend and blogger Angela of Spinach Tiger. She set up a group where we all cook through the book together. Not at the same day/time, but during the same week. It has been a wealth of sharing, learning, tasting and I am shocked to say but we've never a bad dish! In fact, it has been quite the opposite, always a perfect combination of flavors that make your mouth light up! Well worth it!

Crespelles are Italian Crepes (savory, no sweetness) layered with proscuitto, fresh mozzerella, homemade tomato sauce and parmigiano-reggiano. I've never made a crepe before so this recipe was pretty exciting as I made my attempt. They aren't perfect circles, but the taste was out of this world.
