Casatiello, Neapolitan Easter stuffed bread.

Casatiello, Neapolitan Easter stuffed bread.

I never post the right dish at the right time.

Not in time for Christmas, out of time for St. Valentine and so on.

This year I’m here more than a month in advance with a very special recipe for Easter.

How did I do this?

Well I baked this casatiello last year and I’ve never posted it. 🙁

What a shame…

But I’m trying to recover after a year of not posting and this stuffed bread is something you have absolutely to try: it’s ok for your Easter brunch or as a starter for the Easter lunch.

You can rely on this recipe as it comes from my friend Jessica: she is half Neapolitan and half American (from Seattle) and she is always of inspiration as she cooks so well!

I often argue with rised dough but I can assure this recipe is foolproof, follow me and give a chance to it, it will become an Easter favourite!

As you can see I am more stable now and I am back with a lot of nice recipes: I’ve also started to understand light in the new home and I start to take acceptable photos.

You can see them on my Instagram profile, follow it if you like! 😉
