  2. Il blog era nato per proporre piatti tipici della cucina tradizionale italiana a parsone che vivono all'estero, ma grazie agli stumenti statistici offerti da Google e non solo, ci siamo accorti che questo blog ha molto successo anche qui in Italia e abbiamo provveduto quindi ad inserire la doppia unità di peso per dare la possibilità a tutti di cucinare le nostre ricette senza dover fare le conversioni dei pesi.
    Sperando di averVi fatto cosa gradita lo staff di Tortolani Italian Food!
