Has anyone tried making their own limoncello? DH accidently knocked the bottle of purchased limoncello we had off of the island, and broke it.....grrrrr. Decided making our own would be a thought. I use it for Ina Garten's berry salad dressing, but a woman with a thick unidentifiable accent said she made 'lemonade' with it. |

Silver Sage, The link is fixed to http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?/to ... imoncello/ ; that was embarrassing. The recipe is on the first page provided by Katie Loeb. There are 15 pages of discussion with great insights by Katie Loeb and others. Tim |

One thing you can do is mix it with cream to make limoncello cream, which then is an excellent dessert ingredient. Or with sugar for a cake-soaking syrup for a really lemony cake. And, of course, you can drink it. Limoncello is one of a large number of "digestivi" which Italians consider essential after the meal. Many Roman restaurants give you a bottle of some digestivo (Limoncello or an herbal liquor) after you're done with dessert, and a shot glass. |

I have been mixing it with yogurt, whipped cream, or sugar, and using it to dress berrries, and other fruit! Fantastic. It's my new favorite thing, puts just a bit of tang to the fruit. Ina Gartens beery salad with limoncello is a favorite, but last night I used one from BA. |
