Mmmmm, these sound heavenly. I'm going to try them first chance I get some ricotta! Can't wait. Thx for this!


Sounds Good!


Mint might be good the bay leaves were part of the original recipe but I'm sure all good roman housewives of the time altered it to suit themselves just like us today.


Thanks for posting this. I've got to try it. Sounds too interesting to pass up!


I love the simplicity of this recipe!
