CALAMARATA VESUVIUS PASTA | The Taste of the Mediterranean with a Volcan...

Around Italy, on Venerdi Santo there are solemn processions and Lucca is no exception. The members of the Arcicofraternita Della Misericordia of Lucca, barefoot, dressed in black robes and hooded, carry a heavy wooden cross with an image of the crucified Jesus around seven churches in the city. This year with the pain in the world, it was very poignant. The beautiful weather creates the desire for more Mediterranean recipes with more colour and intense flavour. Pasta Vesuvius or Pasta Alla Vesuviana is perfect.
