Rachiele/Tucci family recipies
Our family LOVES to cook. I have had so many requests for me to share our family recipes that I thought I would finally do so. I hope you enjoy these meals as much as we do. I will be adding recipes regularly, so keep coming back! (By the way, the timpano in the photo above is what Timpano is supposed to look like. In the movie, the lady that made the Timpano for the set made the shell too thin, hence you can see the ziti through the shell.)

One pound of broccoli - cook in water until tender (Salt the water)
Cook 3/4 pound of Ziti (Salt the water)
Mix the two in a bowl. Add virgin olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste
You may add a clove of garlic in the broccoli when cooking, but it is not necessary.
