Good morning: the sun is shining: feeling good: freshly ground coffee croissants with Gorgonzola and Mirabelle homemade jam. I never did understand the difference between jam and conserve do you? If it tastes good its good if it doesn't taste good it’s not good.
Yesterday my husband Mario bought 8 lamb chops from the local market. I read Mary's recipe page59 OVEN BAKED CHOPS this is exactly how my mother Trudi taught me. It is so simple and tastes so good.
When I think of this recipe I think of veal Milanese in Cosmos restaurant, an Italian institution in Edinburgh. If I remember Cosmo added a little grated parmesan to the breadcrumbs to give the lovely flavour to the crust - you could try this if you are using veal for a treat.
Now back to the lamb which brings me to page 13 of Mary's book where she describes her visit to Rome for New Year and where she describes a place so exciting that I have made up my mind to take her advice and take a pilgrimage to Rome this New Year and experience for myself all the delights Mary has inspired in me. The only problem is when she tells us about the best abbacchio - spring lamb, she has ever tasted, was in an unassuming trattoria behind the Vatican, she forgot to tell us the name of the said trattoria. If you happen to read this please Mary be fare let us all into your little secret:
ciao for now xxxx
