Building Flavor

Season 11 Episode 1117 | 26m 46s

When working with simple recipes it's all about building flavor, and two things are important: sourcing quality ingredients and respecting them. Lidia puts winter vegetables center stage in both this Winter Minestrone and Roasted Squash and Carrot Salad with Chickpeas and Almonds. Easily pulled together, this dinner is definitely where you will find the flavor when cooking with Lidia.
