The story
About the dish
At the heart of Casarecce alla Catanese are eggplant, tomatoes, ricotta, and basil. The profile moves from a clear, distinctive flavor of its own in eggplant, through bright fruit and lively acidity in tomatoes, to soft, fresh dairy richness in ricotta.
The Sicilian reference in the dish points to an island cuisine layered by Mediterranean exchange, expressed through seafood, vegetables, citrus, nuts and sweet-sour contrasts. Against that background, eggplant becomes especially expressive in the dish through a clear, distinctive flavor of its own.
