keeping a lid on it…

the man from Marseille…

cooking with my hat on…..
When the stars make you drool just like pasta fazool, that’s amore: no it’s not. What it is is pasta e fagioli but even though Dean Martin was Italian, Italians in America become American after quite a short time which entails … Continue reading

for the love of basil…….
I have a similar aversion to day time television as have the majority of its advocates towards ingredients such as anchovies, oysters and snails. This all encompassing judgement may at first appear inequitable and, in concert with the zeitgeist, it … Continue reading

a fear of stuffed tomatoes…
A box of misshapen ripeness such as this is irresistible to me, particularly towards the end of summer when they sell for but a few Euros and, beguiled by their allure, I buy not one box but several. That’s a lot of beguiling … Continue reading

Hard cheese….
Trolleys are to restaurants what gurneys are to hospitals. They carry the tired, the sick or the dead. A cheese trolley says more to me about a restaurant than money ever can by which I mean that it is so … Continue reading
