When you think of Italian specialties, Alabama may not be the first place that comes to mind. But Chef Frank Stitt is trying to change that. He's a traditional southern chef who wants to break down some barriers, and show the south can compete in other food arenas! Chef Frank, who wrote Bottega Favorita, told
Tonia's Kitchen about his sweet tea bruschetta. It combines fresh ricotta, mint and olive oil, all atop hearty grilled bread. Frank told Tonia that it makes for a wonderful springtime snack! It's something you might expect from little Italy in Brooklyn, but maybe not in Birmingham!
