It is always a favorite holiday dish at our home.<br /><br /> I was wondering what you thought about visiting the Castello di Amorosa in Calistoga? We thought it was a very ambitious winery building--very fantastical--and that the tasting room at the time of our visit was too crowded to be enjoyable.

Love the spices you put in the sauce....just needs one more for my taste fennel seed....or alternatively italian sausage in place of ground beef. Did I tell you I made your buttermilk bucuits?

Can’t put my taste buds on what it is I’m missing, but I lack the ability to distinguish the essential difference between things like spaghetti, cannelloni, lasagna, et al. They are all essentially noodles of the macaroni variety whether Chinese or Italian or Kraft-istan.

There ...No, your tastes aren't "off." There are all kinds of lasagna. Sometimes I like the kind with béchamel instead of ricotta filling, sometimes vegetables instead of meat. At an Italian restaurant in London I had a lasagne that was extremely wet - lots of tomato sauce.

We had some lasagna made by an Italian person one day which wasn't entirely to my tastes, but my wife thought it was the best she'd ever had. My tastes are bit "off", lasagne-wise apparently :D.<br /><br />Love a good glass of red with pasta dishes though. It's the perfect pairing!Charleshttp://fiveeurofood.comnoreply@blogger.com
