“Happy and successful cooking doesn't rely only on know-how; it comes from the heart, makes great demands on the palate and needs enthusiasm and a deep love of food to bring it to life.” |
| Georges Blanc, Ma Cuisine des Saisons |
We plan, we toil, we suffer - in the hope of what? A camel-load of idol's eyes? The title deeds of Radio City? The empire of Asia? A trip to the moon? No, no, no, no. Simply to wake just in time to smell coffee and bacon and eggs. |

peppers Alligators... Discard head, feet and tail. Wash and cut into
individual portions. (so how much do 3 adult alligators weigh anyway?)
Borrow, beg or steal huge cooking pot. Use medium heat for oil and
garlic. Add alligator portions, turning often. Add tomatoes, bring to
boil, simmer, add salt, pepper, red pepper, oregano, bay leaves, and
parsley. Cover and simmer for 2 1/2 hours. Last 30 minutes add
onions, peppers, zucchini. Last 5 min. add sliced olives. Serve with
salad topped with favorite Italian dressing and crisp bread. "New
Orleans Cooks The Italian Way" Locovozzi & Mollicone (note: this is a
real recipe and there is a whole Italian area of New Orleans which as
you can see is spicy like cajun, but truely Italian. I have though of
ways to make this with some other meat, because we just don't have
alligators in Milwaukee! Maybe buffalo?)
