Lidia's Kitchen

It's all about the balance today as Lidia pairs some unexpected ingredients that result in the best of flavors. She starts the meal with her Prosciutto and Fig Bruschetta: grilled bread topped with a salty sweet combination of prosciutto and fig jam; Spaghetti with Fennel and Bitter Greens: spaghetti tossed with fennel, escarole and a splash of balsamic; Chocolate Anise Biscotti: the "twice cooked" Italian cookie made with chocolate and anise.
