My Grandma is in the process of moving into a senior living facility and recently gave me a number of her old cookbooks. This weekend, I made dinner using a couple of them. The menu included:
From The Art of Italian Cooking (written by Maria Lo Pinto; published in 1948):
- Antipasto
- Stuffed Mushrooms
- Romaine Salad with Gorgonzola Dressing
- Manzo Alla Moda (Beef a la mode – basically pot roast)
- Amaretti
From The Romagnolis’ Table (published in 1975 and based on a PBS cooking show of the same name that ran from 1973 – 1975)

According to Tom Colicchio, there was a time when small towns in France each had a central bakery.

This dish is designed to replicate that effect by adding bacon and rich chicken stock to flavor the potatoes.
