Tavola Piena means “a full table.” While our ceramics are being made in Italy, we’re sharing the recipes that bring that table to life.
The only purpose of a plate is to be filled.
Spiedini alla Griglia
Serve these Sicilian grilled beef skewers hot off the grill alongside grilled lemon halves, roasted potatoes, a crisp Italian salad, or thick slices of rustic bread ready to catch every toasted breadcrumb. For summer entertaining, Spiedini alla Griglia also pairs beautifully with grilled vegetables, marinated tomatoes, or a light pasta dressed simply with olive oil and garlic. The smoky char from the grill, toasted breadcrumb filling, bay leaf aroma, and touch of tomato create the kind of outdoor Italian meal that turns a simple backyard dinner into something memorable.
Whole Roasted Mediterranean Fish (Italian Style)
A classic Italian preparation where the fish is roasted whole with citrus, herbs, and olive oil. The method is simple and traditional—letting the natural flavor of the fish do most of the work.
Porchetta (Italian Herb-Roasted Pork)
Porchetta is one of Italy’s most iconic pork dishes. Pork is rolled with garlic, fennel, rosemary, and citrus, then roasted until the exterior becomes deeply crisp and aromatic.
Pollo alla Cacciatora (Hunter’s Chicken)
Pollo alla cacciatora, or hunter’s chicken, is a rustic Italian braise of chicken, tomatoes, wine, and herbs—simple ingredients simmered together into the kind of hearty meal meant for long evenings around the table.
Osso Buco alla Milanese
Traditional osso buco slowly braised with white wine, vegetables, and tomatoes, finished with fresh gremolata. A classic Milanese dish perfect for serving family-style.
