This is going a be a very inspiring activity :-))
I have the book "Italiano na cozinha" (Italian in the kitchen), which brings many recipes from some Italian regions and even an italobrasiliana section. It was written by Angela Mela, born in Rio de Janeiro by Italian parents, studied law and cooking in Italy, worked in São Paulo and lives in Roma. A book with recipes and stories. The recipes are all translated into Portuguese, if you have any doubt. I'll try to prepare the Gnocchi alla Romana before the end of this month. Gnocchi alla Romana Ingredienti per 4 persone 900 ml di latte 250 gr. di semolino 50 gr. di burro 80 mt. di olio 2 tuorli d'uovo 100 gr. di parmigiano grattugiato sale e pepe q.b. In una pentola capiente, fare bollire il latte con il sale. A fuoco bassissimo versare piano, piano il semolino mescolando constantemente per evitare che si formino dei grumi. Aggiungere l'olio, i tuorli, il parmigiano e amalgamare bene. Cuocere, sempre a fuoco bassissimo, per circa 10 minuti. In una forma rettangolare grande, versare il composto, livellare bene e lasciare raffreddare. Aiutandosi con un piccolo bicchiere, formare dei dischetti e disporti in una teglia imburrata formando una griglia. Mettere dei fiocchetti di burro sugli gnocchi, cuocere a 180 gradi per 20 minuti e gratinare per 5/7 minuti fino a che gli gnocchi non diventino dorati. Edit: Thanks for songlines!

For Valentine's Day, I served a good French fondue. I used this recipe as the base and tweaked things a bit.
To prepare this, you'll need: - One baguette (for every 3 adults). You want bread with a lot of crispy crust and tons of air bubbles. - Three cheeses, with between 150g and 200g of cheese per person. I used roughly equal portions of Gruyère, Emmenthal and Comté, which is how my wife likes it. In general, any good alpine cheeses should do the job. Slice cheese into thin slices. - 40ml of dry white wine for every 100g of cheese, more or less. If it's too runny or too thick, add a little more cheese or a little more wine. - Crush a garlic glove or two and stir it into the pot. From there, melt the cheese in a fondue pot, and keep it warm over a flame. Slice bread into little pieces and serve. Yum. :-)

Our team log was on page 4! It seems that this is going to be an intense language learning year on HTLAL.
I'd like to say that it won't be possible to prepare the "Gnocchi alla Romana" this month, but I hope to do it already on the first days of March. About Italian and Catalan: Italian: After reading three books in January it seems that I just need to talk to people, which is going a happen very soon. There is this senior person who is coming to work here in Brazil for a while and I'll have lots of opportunities to talk to him. The good thing is that he complains that I speak way too fast ... even in English. So, let's try Italian!! Catalan: I'm reading books and, sometimes, listening to the radio. This is what I'm going to do in Catalan for some time. I'll not try hard to write or speak in this language at this moment.
