"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |

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. |

| Henry Youngman |
In Dutch oven, saute chicken pieces in vegetable oil until browned;
remove and set aside. Pour off all but 2 tablespoons grease from pan.
Add onion, garlic, and peppercorns. Remove sausage from casing, add
to onion mixture and saute for 5 to 7 minutes; drain off grease. Add
chicken broth and tomatoes; simmer, uncovered until sauce is reduced
by a third. Return chicken to mixture. Cover and simmer 20 minutes.
Add carrots and cook for 5 minutes. Add zucchini, raisins, and
peppers; cook for an additional 10 minutes or until chicken is tender
and vegetables are crisp-tender. Garnish with orange slices to bring
out the sweetness of the raisins.
