Happy anniversary!
When I started my blog 6 years ago today, my main focus was to make public all the recipes I shared in my leisure classes, family clubs and after school clubs for more than 10 years.

As the pasta cover the filling in the ravioli and in this recipe is missing this gnocchi made from the filling are served … naked!
