There is a new recipe on the blog and I can only be happy about it.

The recipe of limoncello, a typical liqueur made with lemons and alcohol, is by my grandmother, my guru in terms of cooking and a source of inspiration, who continues to give me her precious recipes with pride.

The secret for preparing a good limoncello are lemons, choose untreated and possibly organic.

I leave you with the recipe for the thermomix limoncello.

Notes

I did not throw away the peels left after filtering them out of alcohol, I made them dry well and mince in the jug for a few seconds at speed. Turbo, then placed in a container and stored in the freezer.
It is an excellent anti-waste solution for flavoring sweets and creams and having it ready for use.
