Fruits and Sweets

In Lidia’s courtyard, the fruit trees would blossom with flowers in spring. In the summer, it was time to play around the trees and wait for the fruit to ripen. Today, Lidia prepares a Fig and Prosciutto Bruschetta, a delicious combination of sweet and salty. She then transforms wafer cookies into Quick & Easy Truffles. Finally, it’s time for a light and airy Almond Tart from Andria.
