Zeppole

Melissa Kelly openedPrimo, an Italian restaurant in Rockland, Maine, in 2000. She has since expanded with locations in Orlando and Tucson. This Web-exclusive recipe for Epicurious is a crispy, delicious dessert from Primo's menu. It can be served hot on its own, or alongside an espresso float with vanilla and chocolate gelato.

Pasta alla Norma

This classic Italian dish is said to have been created in the 1800s after the opening night of Bellini's opera Norma.

Grilled Peaches with Vin Santo and Anise Biscotti

This rustic dessert is great served with a glass of Vin Santo, a sweet Italian white wine.
