The story

About the dish

Cannelloni alla Fiorentina is anchored by ricotta, spinach, mozzarella, and marinara sauce. Gratinating it adds a browned, savory surface over the softer filling beneath. In the dish, ricotta supplies soft, fresh dairy richness, while spinach adds a fresh vegetal edge with pleasant bitterness and mozzarella adds soft, fresh dairy richness.

It carries a Tuscan cue toward cooking that prizes excellent raw materials—olive oil, unsalted bread, beans, vegetables, meat and wine—used with striking clarity. The ricotta brings soft, fresh dairy richness to the regional story carried by the dish.
