If you'd like to take a walk through Naples, I suggest starting by preparing one of its most popular and passionate Italian pasta recipes, spaghetti alla puttanesca. You'll see how, without leaving your home, they transport you to Italy while you cook the sauce. And as soon as you bring the plate to the table and the spaghetti to your mouth, just close your eyes and you'll feel as if you were eating in one of its seaside restaurants.

As you may already know, I love fresh pasta. Making it, cooking it and savoring it. I like it in all its forms and with any sauce or accompaniment. Since I also enjoy adapting recipes (forgive me, purists), today I bring you these Spaghetti with cuttlefish and shrimp ragù, a delicious dish with lots of summer flavor, because I believe seafood dishes taste like summer.

Listen closely, because I'm not bringing you a tortilla with pan con tomate, but I'm bringing the traditional recipe for a pan con tomate tortilla. I love it!

This pan con tomate tortilla is a traditional Catalan recipe, but nowadays it is little known and you will rarely find it.

This recipe for turbot on the griddle with fennel and lemon is the best example of "less is more." Both in the number of ingredients it uses and in how it’s cooked. You’ll see it’s the perfect excuse to make the most of your ceramic frying pan and to enjoy an extraordinary white fish. A dish with Mediterranean aroma and flavor, in which the turbot takes center stage.

Today's recipe is one of the pillars of Italian cuisine: I invite you to travel to Italy with the recipe for authentic Bolognese sauce, accompanied by some tips on how to make traditional ragù alla bolognese. I assure you there is no more famous sauce for pasta!

I assure you this goat cheese frittata is a fantastic option for many dinners, although I also admit that sometimes it has been a wonderful Sunday lunch. Just as there are endless possibilities with omelettes, the frittata offers the same versatility, making both great recipes for using up ingredients. For today’s version, I pair this cheese frittata with spinach, garlic and pepper. A combination I love!

Today I bring you a recipe that I'm sure, once you try it, you'll make often. This stuffed eggs with salmon and spinach béchamel recipe is a real find. It's very simple to prepare, the result is delicious and very creamy, and since you can make it with any filling you want, it's perfect as a way to use leftovers.

Today I take you on a journey with this delicious traditional Shepherd’s Pie: Irish lamb pie. This typical meat pie is a true classic in Irish kitchens, and a dish that cannot be missing on Saint Patrick's Day. The celebration of St. Patrick's Day has crossed borders and I'm sure most of us mark the date in green on our calendars, like the green of the shamrock that the saint used as an example to explain the Holy Trinity.

Sometimes we make life complicated searching for recipes to impress at home and don’t realize that making something tasty can be really simple. Like these eggs with pesto I bring you today. I assure you there’s no easier recipe than this one, which you’ll have ready in the blink of an eye and that you’ll love—Claudia’s word!

If there's a pan that can perfectly brown a good potato rösti, it's undoubtedly De Buyer's Mineral iron pan. Its ability to retain and distribute heat evenly makes every bite achieve that perfect balance between a crispy exterior and a tender center.

Today I bring a recipe that will make you look good no matter what: a classic fish pie, with a filling mainly of cod, prawns, tuna and onion, and covered with a puff pastry that gives it a beautiful rustic look while rounding out each bite when eaten with the filling.
