Italian Sunday Dinner Ideas

• 
  Beef Braciola Stuffed with Basil and Mozzarella
  

  This is an Italian-American classic with a twist. The traditional dish uses small roulades of beef round, but here we use a whole flank steak because it’s quicker and easier to stuff and roll, and the flank offers a wonderful flavor.

  Pappardelle with Venetian Duck Ragu

• 
  Pappardelle with Venetian Duck Ragu
  

  In northern Italy, ragùs tend to be less about tomatoes and more about the meat and aromatic herbs that flavor them. Venetian ragù, for example, is made from the meat of the wild ducks and is perfumed with native bay leaf and fresh sage. This version's deep flavor comes from duck legs and thighs and dry red wine.
