"Al forno" is an Italian term that translates to "from the oven" in English. It refers to dishes that are baked or roasted in the oven, often creating a comforting and delicious meal. This cooking method is widely used in Italian cuisine to prepare a variety of dishes, including:
Pasta Al Forno: This is a classic Italian baked pasta dish, often made with pasta like ziti or rigatoni, layered with rich tomato sauce, cheeses (such as mozzarella and parmesan), and sometimes meat or vegetables. It's similar to a lasagna but has more flexibility with ingredients.
Pizza Al Forno: Refers to traditional oven-baked pizzas that are made with a variety of toppings. The oven can be wood-fired for an authentic flavor or a regular oven for home-made pizzas.
Bread and Pastries: Al forno is also used to describe various baked bread and pastries, emphasizing the importance of the baking process in achieving the desired texture and flavor.
Seafood and Meats: In some cases, seafood or meats are cooked al forno, often seasoned with herbs, spices, and a drizzle of olive oil to enhance the flavors as they roast.
Cooking al forno generally adds a depth of flavor as the ingredients meld and develop in the oven. This technique is celebrated for producing hearty, aromatic dishes with a caramelized top layer and a moist interior.
