Twisted Italian

Season 11 Episode 1103 | 26m 46s

Who doesn’t love Italian food? Sara’s got some of your favorites made with a twist. Like delicious ravioli made with wonton skins to save time, or lasagna made with polenta rather than noodles. For a show stopper, try her butternut squash farrotto, just like risotto but with the ancient grain farro. On top, delicious fried sage.
