Fazzoletti with Lobster Claws
78
Lemoncello and lobster - what a way to relax during a summer vacation in Italy! I add fennel and lemon zest to this recipe giving it a very fresh flavor. The dish almost looks like a disorganized lasagna and must be approached with both a fork and a knife so that the sheets don't get away from you. Give it a whirl and if you can't find any lemoncello a Trebbiano will do!
