Thanks for this. I looked at a few recipes; the Rigatoni w/ Sausage Cream Sauce even had a recipe for the sausage (bulk). Bookmarked.

No beef recipe is complete without a recipe for giardiniera.
(That recipe is the result of googling; my family has our own recipe, thank you very much.)

You know, people's constant need to define what they do as "the art of" is really fucking annoying. "The art of fabric stain removal." "The art of VCR repair."
The art of living? Seriously?

gravy and sauce are synonyms and interchangeable. i know several old school italian chefs that call their sauces gravy. i would defend the chicago site as it offers many straight-forward dishes that are within the skills of non-professional cooks. as a professional chef, i have bookmarked a few of them myself.

RE 1st link: He calls tomato sauce "gravy".
Gravy is what Italian grandmothers make on Sunday.
Thanks for these links. I do a lot of the cooking in the ozzy household, and I do it mostly by feel, these days, but it's nice to see recipes for ideas of which sorts of things might go together nicely. The mrs does most of the baking (the sweet sort, anyway), and she's been on a biscotti kick since Christmastime. And I would really enjoy these biscotti.

Yeah, fuck that noise...they'll also call any shape pasta "macaroni." Do they not know what words MEAN? /sarcasm

Slice beef thin on a meat slicer. If you don't have a slicer, get one.
Well, maybe another time.
