How many things can a man create with his own hands, able to surprise and please his boyfriend as much as a nice dish prepared with passion? They are really counted on the fingers of one hand!
Discarded the DIY, oil painting and a couple of other things that honestly require too much knowledge, space and equipment, all that remains is to focus on the kitchen. We all have an oven at home, and on the internet you can find an infinite amount of delicious recipes with which to indulge yourself.
If you want to surprise him, conquer him, and tie him to you by taking him by the throat, stick to the Italian tradition.
Italian food is at the heart of our romantic culture
Time ago on the known dating site which has a large gay community, we had happened to question several men about what type of cuisine they preferred to spend evenings in company. Curiously, instead of the Chinese cuisine that we expected to win by virtue of the fact that our country has been carpeted with take-away restaurants, our traditional cuisine has won hands down. It is therefore useless to go looking outside when we have probably the best culinary tradition in the world in our hands.
Italian food is practical and sensual
In a beautiful article by musa.news we talk about how apparently the Italians would be the people in the world who most often think about food.
Probably in this article if we were Americans we would be suggesting something else, but we are inhabitants of the boot and in these parts there is nothing more sensual to do, indoors, than to put on an apron and dedicate yourself body and soul to the alchemy of flavors. We are made so report us!
Cooking together is the best way to get close
When you cook, if you do it with passion, it is a moment of creation & of the most beautiful. We immediately receive a first gratification because cooking itself is objectively pleasant, and an even greater second when we then taste the result of our efforts.
Cooking should not be a stressful activity, and therefore becomes perfect for spending time together and learning to move and think in unison without hindering each other, doing it in a home and controlled environment prepares you for the many challenges that life poses to gay couples.
Dishes that ignite the passion
But now let's get to the point! Here are the selected recipes that seem to be made on purpose to accompany an evening for two behind closed doors.
- Bruschetta with tomato, mozzarella and basil
Need a recipe? Sliced bread, tomato, mozzarella, basil and salt. Order and quantity to taste, strictly in the oven! There is no soul that can resist these delicacies.
- Stuffed Sardinian Eggplant
Sardinian aubergines can be an excellent vegan dish if stuffed with tomatoes, oil and oregano, otherwise if you are two incorrigible carnivores, cheese and a slice of salami will make this dish the end of the world.
- Bolognese lasagna
Lasagna is one of those dishes that really give satisfaction but can be adapted to your level of cooking. If neither is practical, you could start by buying the béchamel and the sheets, and even then you would still have a lot to do.
If, on the other hand, you have time and a minimum of manual skills, one could take care of ironing the egg mass while the other prepares the white sauce and meat sauce. The final result will still be an apotheosis of flavors.
- Sea Salad
Seafood salad is another one of those dishes that extraordinarily suit different skill levels. It can take a few minutes to buy everything ready, or it could take the whole day.
Yes! The whole day. Octopus, mussels, shrimps, squid, and clams all have different cooking times and methods of preparation, so this is one of those recipes to approach with great caution and a lot of time, but probably the one that will also allow you to spend more time together and to eat the best ever.
- Panna cotta with strawberries and ice cream
Here we have finally arrived at dessert! It's time for licking fingers, disposable molds and cream at will. Who could ever resist such soft sweetness?
Conclusion
With these 5 recipes you will have quality time to spend with each other in abundance, however, do not stop exploring and experimenting, there are many other recipes to prepare.
The Eastern world taught us to make yogurt, the Nordic one the beer, and our grandparents the mother mass. All these traditions have in common the commitment to keep alive a colony of ferments, able to give us unique flavors.
It is a next step towards a more committed and healthy kitchen, which however gives the couple the feeling of having something alive in common, to share and take care of. Cooking is not just about eating, but also and above all the art of creating.
