Another great post! I am not a baker, either. I would like to see your apple pie steps. It looks delicious. My sister and I had to join forces for our “Apple Crumb Pie” on Thanksgiving! Me and dough just do not mix!
Not a good baker. Yeah, sure, that pie looks just awful! I would do all your dishes for one slice of it.
I am going to be thinking about that pie during the day. I am also going to be including a large amount of very hot custard in my thinking.
When I was young and foolish, I decided to learn by heart GMH’s “The Wreck of the Deutschland”, which poem I would bawl to the rushing air on my Yamaha 250 trailbike as I journeyed to my friend’s home each week for beer and conversation. It exactly matched the travel time, I was to discover.
I’ve been rewarded beyond the wildest speculation. Bits of it come back in all manner of situations.
“Our King back – oh, upon English souls! Let Him Easter in us! …” Even as an Aussie, I love that and think with great hope of what Pope Benedict is doing right now.
The burners on that stove look so clean!
Rob: I give up. Where did Hopkins write that? ;- )
This is not fair. Looking at all this and not being able to eat it.
I must say my husband to have a look and make all that – he’s a very good cook.
Father, you should open a chain of restaurants called ‘What does the food really taste like?’
Oooo….everything looks really good, Father Z! (though I’m not fond of onions)
‘Saltimbocca’-is that Italian for ‘bacon’?
‘What Does The Food Really Taste Like?’-good one, Magpie! I like that!
Everything looks delicious! I’m not a fan of onions unless they’re sauteed really well.
Mmm, that pie!!

Panchetta is the Italian version of bacon. [Almost… pancetta. Also, saltimbocca is best with guanciale.]
Saltimbocca is veal with prosciutto (very thinly sliced ham), cooked with butter and Marsala wine. [I used white wine rather than Marsala for this saltimbocca. There was no Marsala where I was. There is also a scaloppine alla Marsala that goes down very gratefully.] It is wuuuuuuuunderful. [Rem acu tetigisti!]
Father: If you ever want to “test” a meal before making it for your buddies, you know where to find me! I’ll make the sacrifice. It’s the least I can do.
Thanks for the explanation, robrtbrown! Makes me wish I were back in Italy again.
Veal and ham together–that sounds delicious!
Looking at these pictures is making me verrry hungry!
You look very skilled! I hope that the taste of these dishes matched to the appearance :-) You have to try a “risotto alla milanese”… and thanks for approving my registration!
Thanks for the comment! Actually, I do make risotto from time to time. The last time, I made risotto with taleggio, pears, and cognac.
I LOVE saltimbocca alla romana.
And yours looks delicious.
Prof. Basto: It was delicious, too.
