Ingredients For This Week's Recipes
Our subscription box this week is full of an assortment of goods and produce, perfect for this week's recipe collection.
“Summer cooking implies a sense of immediacy, a capacity to capture the essence of a fleeting moment.” – Elizabeth David, food writer
The Italian Summer
This week’s box brings together everything we love about an Italian summer table: handcrafted fresh pasta, savory Italian sausage, vine-ripened tomatoes, fragrant basil, crusty sourdough, and a garden overflowing with fresh herbs and vegetables. Alongside these classic flavors, you’ll find a few Bella Luna touches—including our housemade crème fraîche, farm-fresh eggs, and rich chicken stock—bringing a little Northwest farmhouse charm to this Italian-inspired feast.
Here are a few recipe ideas for the week:
Whipped Garden Herb Crème Fraîche with Grilled Bread
This simple spread makes an effortless summer appetizer: serve it with slices of grilled fig and walnut sourdough, then top with juicy tomatoes, a drizzle of olive oil, and flaky sea salt.
Fresh Pasta with Italian Sausage, Burst Tomatoes & Crème Fraîche
This simple pasta celebrates the best flavors of summer with juicy tomatoes, savory Italian sausage, fragrant basil, and a silky crème fraîche sauce that comes together in minutes.
Grilled Fennel
Lightly charred and naturally sweet, grilled fennel makes a simple yet elegant side dish. This week, serve it alongside your fresh pasta and Italian sausage for a beautiful summer meal.
Roasted Turnips with Brown Butter & Thyme
Finished with nutty brown butter and fresh thyme, these roasted turnips are an easy side dish that pairs beautifully with grilled meats, fresh pasta, or roasted chicken.
Celery & Cucumber Salad with Herbs
