One of my fondest memories of childhood is 'snow ice cream'. We lived
very remotely and in an area with no electricity, paved roads, etc. but
the air was clean! When it would snow my Mom would scoop off a bunch of
clean snow, mix it with some vanilla, sugar, and maybe some milk to make
snow ice cream. Wonderful stuff, at least in those days.

Ohhh! What a WONDERFUL Idea!!!!!!!! It's cute!

Ohhhh! I didn't know that!!! (I'm not saying the truth...😄DDD)
Paste di meliga are a bit difficult to explain. It's a piedmontese
recipe!
You can't find it in other Italian regions. You can buy polenta biscuits,
but they aren't so good as Paste di meliga. The confectioners who make

them

are jelous of their recipe. So I had to invent the recipe, remembering
the
taste. I will post ASAP.
Perhaps I will make this week for you, if I have a little time.
For what concerning Vin brulè, it's typical to drink it in the nothern

Italy

because it's cold.
For this, you put in red wine a lot of spices (included chinnamon, cloves
and juniper berries), then sugar or honey, boil just few minutes and then
drink hot. It is very useful for cold desease!
