fieno del fieno il relativo giorno di donna #8
Fieno del fieno il relativo giorno di donna is the Babelfish translation for Hay Hay Its Donna Day. Cenzina has posted Hay Hay Its Donna Day #8 . Cenzina is our first European host and has selected a well known Italian recipe for the challenge. Couldn't you just tuck into a bowl of her Tempo di Risotto right now. I'm sure it tastes as good as it looks.
This month's challenge is very special as it is the 1st anniversary of the Hay Hay Its Donna Day challenge. And to make the event even more special Cenzina has arranged a wonderful prize for the winner of the best risotto. We are very grateful to the lovely people at Sal Lorenzo for their generous goody box of Italian specialities. Drop by and say bonjourno to them.
Visit Cenzina at il cavoletto di bruxelles for the risotto recipe and competition details. You may choose to make the recipe as written or design your own risotto using the basic method. Send your entries to Cenzina at risottofordonna(at)gmail(dot)com by the 27th November.
Cenzina and I look forward to lots of risotto ideas from you all.
Oh - yes please thanks for the invite! I am happy to join! Big fan of all things Italian! Can I ask though - is Hay Hay its Donna Day, like a version of Hay Hay its Donna Hay Day? If so, how does Donna Hay fit into the day? If not I woud love to know more about how Donna day started!

Tim - It is all the one event. The entire history of the event is under it's own heading in my categories (on left of page). The host posts a recipe then everyone makes and posts their version. You are free to make it as it is or make the basic recipe and add or subtract ingredients. Entries are posted in a round up at the end and everyone votes for their favourite. The winner gets to hosts the next challenge.

I'm so pleased Cenzina has chosen risotto for her HHDD. I've been thinking for a while that it would make a great recipe for bloggers.
Can't wait to see all the entries. I need some new ideas for risotto.

I often make cakes any recipes I got from Donna Hay published on Canvas, but not specially buy her magazine.
