Possibly created in 1904 by chef Ernest Arbogast of the Palace in San Francisco, this dish is named after Italian opera star, Luisa Tetrazzini. It’s often made with “diced fowl or seafood, mushrooms, and almonds in a butter/cream and parmesan sauce flavored with wine or sherry and stock vegetables such as onions, celery, and carrots.”
