Come fare Affogato

Perché iniziare qui

Affogato is cooked the way every Italian bar cooks it — good olive oil used without counting, salt judged by hand, and no fuss about the plate. This is the home version, written down the way an Italian family cook actually puts it on the table.

Affogato is a classic Italian dessert that combines the richness of vanilla gelato with the boldness of hot espresso. It's a simple yet indulgent treat enjoyed in cafes and homes throughout Italy. The hot espresso is poured over the gelato, creating a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures. The taste is a harmonious blend of creamy sweetness and robust coffee, enhanced by a hint of Amaretto liqueur. Crumbled amaretti cookies add a satisfying crunch, making each spoonful a perfect balance of flavors. This dessert is a quick escape to the Italian way of savoring life's simple pleasures.
