Iconic Italian American actor Stanley Tucci and the star-studded water S.Pellegrino have released a new limited-edition recipe kit!  And timing couldn't better as we enter into the holiday season, aka "eating season" at my house.

Crafted in collaboration with one of my favorite premium Italian pasta brands Rummo, the tiny Stelline star shaped pasta pays homage to S.Pellegrino's iconic red star logo and satiates fans' cravings for the sentimental taste of pastina that's been served on Italian and American tables for decades.

Similar to last year's Taste of Tucci kit, also created by the Italian duo, each Stelline Two Ways recipe kit includes a selection of fresh ingredients, premium Italian products, bags of pasta, and of course, a bottle of S.Pellegrino to perfectly complement each dish.

"I had so much fun sharing a taste of my family's recipes with S.Pellegrino last year that we're doing it again — but this time, fans will get two dishes inspired by one beloved pasta shape that's a staple in my kitchen all winter long," says Tucci

Stanley's recipe for Brodo di Gallina con Polpettine di Pollo (Chicken Soup with Tiny Chicken Meatballs) is an elevated take on chicken noodle soup made with hearty vegetables, handmade chicken meatballs and S.Pellegrino Stelline pasta. This dish is perfect for enjoying as a primi course for festive holiday feasts with friends and family gathered around the table. Of course served alongside a chilled bottle of S.Pellegrino is highly recommended.

Pastina Classica is Stanley's version of the beloved Italian-American pasta dish we all know and love. Rich and creamy, made extra special with the Italian king of cheese, Parmigiano Reggiano and butter this dish is the epitome of simple Italian comfort food that will keep you warm all winter long. 

You can purchase Stanley Tucci's Stelline Two Ways recipe kit for $89 (including two-day cold shipping) from World Chef/YumCrunch starting November 1 with additional weekly drops on November 8, November 15 and November 27.
