Calabria Revisited
CALABRIA REVISITED An evening celebrating the foods & culture of Calabria
To Benefit Days of Taste The Calabria region of southern Italy is filled with history and with prized culinary treasures. From peperoncino to liquorice root, Calabria lays claim to some of Italy's most celebrated ingredients. The American Institute of Wine and Food and Alloro Restaurant invite you to share in the presence and simplicity of Calabrian cuisine. Inspired from his childhood in Albi and with his own unique interpretation of Calabrian cuisine, Chef Salvatore Corea has crafted a four course feast dedicated to the rich bounty of Calabria. Chef Corea carefully foraged typical Calabrian ingredients from the region for this dinner. Six-time James Beard Award nominee for Outstanding Wine Service Charles Scicolone will guide you through a flight of specially selected wines of Calabria to be paired with each course. Mr. Scicolone is an author and educator of Italian wines who has been featured in The New York Times, Wine Spectator, and Food Arts, among others. The evening will include a silent auction including a Mosefund Farm Tour, a collection of autographed cookbooks by Michele Scicolone, wines donated by Wine Emporium, as well as a foods of Calabria gift basket by Louis Coluccio of D. Coluccio and Sons. Proceeds will benefit Days of Taste The American Institute of Wine and Food's national food education program. www.daysoftaste.org CALABRIA REVISITED AT ALLORO 307 east 77th Street New York Thursday, February 23 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets $150.00 per person all-inclusive AIWF Members $125.00 MENU Hors d'oeuvres Enjoy Salvatore's selection of Calabrian cured meats and cheeses SCAVIGNA BIANCO ~ ODOARDI ~ CALABRIA ~ 2010 Antipasto Appetizer Burratina, tartare di pomodori e gelatina di peperoncino Creamy cow's milk cheese, tomato tartar, spicy red pepper gelatin SCAVIGNA BIANCO ~ ODOARDI ~ CALABRIA ~ 2010 Primo Pasta Candele di grangnano con ragù di n'juduia, pecorino crotonese, scorzette d'agrumi candite Candele di grangnano pasta, n'juduia ragù, pecorino crotonese, citrus zest CIRÒ IPPOLITO 1845 ROSSO CLASSICO SUPERIORE~ RIBER PATER ~ CALABRIA ~ 2009 Secondo Entrée Filetto di maiale con salsa di miele e peperoncino, verze stufate, crema fritta, pancetta crocante Roasted pork loin, honey & spicy red pepper sauce, braised cabbage, fried cream, crispy pancetta SAVUTO COLACINO ~ VIGNA COLLE BARABBA ~ CALABRIA ~ 2008 Dolce Dessert Gelato di liquirizia con ricotta di pecora fresca, insalatina di finocchi Licorice ice cream, fresh sheep ricotta, fennel salad N'TICE LIQUOR ~ CALABRIA THIS PROGRAM WAS MADE POSSIBLE WITH SUPPORT FROM D.
