Recently uncovered digs in Newfoundland prove Vikings discovered Pasta Fagiloi. Like the discovery of America -- Vikings thought it best kept to themselves.
I've been considering the Traviglini Gattinara for a while but it's a little out of range. Love Nebbiolo though. Yours is quite old. Must have been good.
Cooking pasta fagiloi to the Big Night Soundtrack with a couple glasses of Gattinera consumed over the stove is the most fun I've ever had with my clothes on. Matteo Salvatore makes me wanna propose to Rossellini.

ReplyDeleteKeith- It is.
ReplyDeleteLWing- I'm trying to track down the '97s but it's tough. This wasn't so bad price wise but then I know how tight you are.
Big Night also invented the "foodie movie." Great flick. More American chefs need to take Primo's advice and stick w/ their roots.

An amazing dish. There is no secret about it's provenance though. Everybody in Duluth knows it.

you got some nice handwriting
ReplyDeleteLoved reading the recipe from a handwritten note! I am so glad you didn't transcribe it. Sounds delicious!
ReplyDeleteM Lane - Uff da.
ReplyDeleteADG- Everything I got is nice.
bmackintosh- It's even better after a few days in the fridge or a week in the freezer.
Much as I hate to admit it, I gotta hand it New York sometimes. Gattinara just ain't so easy to come by aorund here. Yum...
ReplyDeleteAnd we discovered Vikings...ovens and stove tops.
ReplyDeleteSauce from a smeared and lovingly used hand-written recipe: all the proof you need that you are on the right side of history. I'll be there.

Love this recipe...copied right out of Mark Sussman's "Campagna Table." A classic!
