CARBONE RESTORANTE



ROCCO'S IS CARBONE ?



ROCCO'S IS CARBONE !
The former Greenwich Village Old-Schhol Red-Sauce Italian Joint, Rocco's a beloved little neighborhood trattoria closed two years ago as most people know. Squeezed out by a greedy lanlord and the so-called Torrisi Boys; Mario Carbone, Rich Torrisi, and Jeff Zalaznick ... Some hard-core old-school Italians were really miffed and the final straw some said was when the ne-owners superimposed the name "Carbone" right over the Old Rocco Neon Sign .. They said the Torrisi Boys add "Insult to Injury" with that one, not to mention prices like $52 Veal Parmigiano and sky-high prices across the board on; cocktails, food, and wine ...

How To Make Sinatra Sauce Gravy




FRANK SINATRA


SUNDAY GRAVY alla SINATRA


    As a boy and young man, Dolly Sinatra would often make Frankie Spaghetti & Meatballs, which Frank loved all his life, from his Mom and at his favorite restaurant “Patsy’s” on West 56th Street in New York.
    Frank also liked Maccheroni with Sausage & Meatballs, otherwise known as Sunday Sauce or simply “Gravy” with Sausage & Meatballs.

MAKING SUNDAY GRAVY alla SINATRA

To make “Sunday Gravy alla Sinatra,” simply make the above recipe for Spaghetti & Meatballs. Cook and brown 1 ½ pounds of Italian Sweet Sausages, and after you have completed step # 5 in previous recipe, add the browned Sausages and continue cooking and following the above recipe. After you have simmered the tomatoes and sausages for 1 - 1/4 hours, you will brown the meatballs and add to “Sauce.” Continue cooking another 35 minutes, on the lowest simmer, and “Voila,” you’ll end up with Sunday Sauce Gravy alla Sinatra, “Just the way Frank liked it!”

PS .. For the most authentic version of the way Frank ate Sunday Sauce Gravy, use Ronzoni brand Spaghetti or Rigatoni pasta, and don’t forget to have some Frank Sinatra records playing as you make the Meatballs & Gravy and when you are eating as well. And it is definitely appropriate to have Dean Martin, Tony Bennett and Jerry Vale playing as well, but Sinatra is a must. Bon Appetito!

Wikipedia On Gabagool



GABAGOOL !!!!


Wikipedia On GABAGOOL

Capocollo (in the United States, cappicola or gabagoul; in Canada,capicollo or capicolla), or coppa, is a traditional Italian cold cut(salume) made from dry-cured whole pork shoulder or neck. This cold cut is sometimes called coppa. The name capocollo comes from capo—head—and collo—neck—of a pig. The Italian word, "capocollo'" is of Tuscan origin, but its precise etymology is unknown (in Latin caputmeans head and collum means head or head and neck). It is similar to the more widely known cured ham or prosciutto, because they are both pork-derived cold-cuts that are used in similar dishes. However, the technical definition of ham is the thigh and buttocks of a pig (or boar) slaughtered for meat, whereas capocollo is solely meat from the shoulder or neck.
