Damn, were these things spicy! But awfully delicious, to. I ate them in a simple manner, atop a bed of baby spinach, dressed only in some of the oil from the jar, alongside a piece of leftover lasagne and a tall glass of old lady soda.
What more could a third-hand Italian kid want?
Leftover lasagne alla bolognese is the best!
ReplyDeleteBuon appetito!
honestly, absolutely nothing. Very jealous of those pants by the way...

You know what is also really great? Pancetta. But it is expensive.

Trust me, it is great.
Lasagna + baby spinach salad + old lady soda...
ReplyDeleteMa che bella questa combinazione!!!
Those anchovies look amazing. My father used to trade his technical services for food with an Italian deli ran by a guy named Tony (aptly enough) when I was a kid, we would get these little cherry peppers stuffed with fresh mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto and soaked in spicy olive oil, my favorite antipasto of all freaking time. Not to mention Tony would always wrap up all the fresh meats in that old school butcher paper. Man I miss those days.
ReplyDeleteI gotta try some of that old lady soda. I have some French red burning a hole in my counter, I think I'll mix myself a glass.
Love the blog! But it's la colazione, not il colazione (la prima colazione etc.)
ReplyDeleteGianni, duly noted and corrected, thank you.
