Since then, I have changed in many ways and left much of my past behind, but one thing I learned from my mother never left me: the passion for food. Today I'm 20 years old and I go back to my town less often than I'd like, but every time I go there my mother and I book some part of the day to cook. It is precisely among so many recipes and literally putting our hands dirty, we could decrease the lack we feel from each other and still feel as if we lived together. <br/>One of the most traditional recipes between us is a quiche with a lot of mozzarella, tomato and basil, plus a special touch of nutmeg and pepper. This recipe is very special to me because it is simple, light and delicious as the best things in life. This simplicity also reminds me of the delicious years I spent in my town, surrounded by loving parents and friends, plus lots of good food. <br/>Even though I feel in different gastronomic cultures when I'm in my kitchen, there's no better place than Italy to see the best gastronomy. The country beyond the historical and natural beauties, has one of the richest cuisines in the world, and what enchants me most - as in my quiche - is that many delicious recipes are made with simple, fresh ingredients. Go to Italy, to me, would be an experience so intense back the origins as the taste of good pasta with tomato sauce.</p> https://journals.worldnomads.com/agabrielagodoy/photos/45904/Brazil/Passport-and-Plate-Quiche-with-a-mozzarella-tomato-and-basil Travel Brazil agabrielagodoy https://journals.worldnomads.com/agabrielagodoy/photos/45904/Brazil/Passport-and-Plate-Quiche-with-a-mozzarella-tomato-and-basil#comments https://journals.worldnomads.com/agabrielagodoy/photos/45904/Brazil/Passport-and-Plate-Quiche-with-a-mozzarella-tomato-and-basil Mon, 10 Mar 2014 14:00:00 GMT 0
