Antonino shares a new and easy recipe with grape or cherry tomatoes, buffalo stracciatella, and shrimp. But what makes the dish special is the special pasta: Penne with ridges both inside and out.

Today Antonino cooks special, grooved spaghetti, with garlic, oil and hot peppers. It's a classic pasta recipe, but our chef adds some extra ingredients to give it a different twist.

Antonino is in the kitchen with Michele from Eboli preparing a pasta dish with provola, eggplant and red mullet.

Antonio Cannavacciuolo shows us how to make a very elegant pasta dish with zucchini and fish. The cooking video is an ad for Voiello pasta, in this case mezze maniche which means "short sleeves."

Anna tells us about the different varieties of rice found in Italy, and Marika completes the cooking of the risotto.

Arianna takes us down to one of the most popular and busiest parts of the city. Many areas are primarily zone pedonali (pedestrian areas) but you still have to be very careful.

Today Arianna takes us back to Florence. This time we go to a high point on the southern side of the Arno river where we get a view of the whole city in all its splendor.

Anna and Marika are hard at work with their mortar and pestle, making some delicious pesto. As they work, they give us some extra information about their new tool.

Arianna is still a bit hungry, so she looks around for something else to eat. After lunch, she takes us downstairs to the actual market.

Arianna takes us around Florence. In this part, we walk from the main train station to the famous San Lorenzo market, where it's time to find some lunch.

Anna and Marika form the Calabrian ricotta balls and cook them in tomato sauce. The ricotta balls can also be fried and served without sauce.

All the ingredients are ready, and Anna and Marika go to work, making the ricotta ball mixture. They share with us a common saying about prezzemolo (parsley).

Anna and Marika provide the list of necessary ingredients for this Calabrese specialty. This recipe calls for sheep's milk ricotta. When you go to buy ricotta in Italy, storekeepers will ask if you want cow, sheep, or goat ricotta. You can also specify a mix.

Here we are in the final phase of this delicious pasta recipe from Sardinia. This is the fun part, for sure.

In this phase, Marika and Anna roll up their sleeves and get their hands dirty. They start making the dough by hand, and are very excited about using their new pasta machine.
