Title: SHEFTALIA (BARBEQUE SAUSAGES)
Categories: Greek, Meats, Bar-b-q
Yield: 50 servings

Karen Mintzias
500 g Finely ground fatty pork
500 g Finely ground veal or lamb
1 lg Onion; finely chopped
-or- grated
1/2 c Finely chopped parsley
2 ts Salt
250 g Panna (caul fat from pig)

Combine pork with veal or lamb, onion, parsley, salt
and a generous grinding of black pepper.
Dip panna into a bowl of warm water for a minute or
two, remove and carefully open out a piece at a time,
laying it out flat on work surface. Cut with kitchen
scissors into pieces about 10 cm (4 inches) square.
Take a good tablespoon of meat mixture and shape into
a thick sausage about 5 cm (2 inches) long. Place
towards one edge of piece of panna, fold end and sides
over meat and roll up firmly. Repeat with remaining
ingredients. Thread sausages on flat sword-like
skewers, leaving space between them. Number on each
skewer depends on their length. Cook over glowing
charcoal, turning frequently. Do not place too close
to heat as sheftalia must cook fairly slowly so that
the inside is well cooked and the outside nicely
browned without being burnt. The panna melts during
cooking, keeping the meat moist and adding flavour.
Excessive flaring of fire can be controlled by a
sprinkle of water on the coals. Serve sheftalia as an
appetizer or a main course.

    CALABRIAN ASPARAGUS SOUP

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Soups Vegetarian

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 Clove garlic – minced
    2 tb Olive oil – extra-virgin
    2 lb Asparagus – trimmed and cut
    -into 1-inch pieces
    2 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Freshly ground pepper
    4 c Vegetable Broth – (see
    -recipe) OR canned low-
    Sodium chicken broth
    4 Eggs
    1/2 c Parmesan – fresly grated OR
    -Pecorino, PLUS extra
    For serving
    6 sl Italian bread – toasted

    Number of Servings: 6

    1. In a large saucepan, cook the garlic in the olive
    oil over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until
    golden, about 3 minutes. Add the asparagus and cook
    until bright green, about 5 minutes. Add the salt,
    pepper and Vegetable Broth and bring to a boil. Reduce
    the heat to moderately low and simmer until the
    asparagus are tender, about 15 minutes.

    2. In a small bowl, beat the eggs with 1/2 cup of the
    cheese. Reduce the heat to low so that the soup is no
    longer simmering, and very slowly ladle about 2 cups
    of the hot soup into the beaten eggs, whisking
    constantly. Once incorporated, gradually stir the egg
    mixture into the soup in the saucepan. Increase the
    heat to moderately low and cook the soup, whisking
    constantly, until it just thickens, about 8 minutes.
    Do not allow the soup to boil or the eggs will curdle.
    Remove from the heat.

    3. Place one slide of toasted bread into each soup
    bowl. Ladle the hot soup on top and serve with
    additional grated cheese.

    Serves 6.

    NOTE: Thickening soup with bread is typical of rustic
    Italian cooking, in which nothing goes to waste. The
    toasts may be made from day-old or slightly stale
    bread. Serve with a Sauvignon Blanc.

    15 ounces cannellini beans — cooked, drained
    salt and pepper — to taste
    1/4 cup chopped parsley
    1 pound pasta — pappardelle
    Parmesan cheese — fresh

    TOMATO MIX: In a food processor, coarsely chop the tomatoes, artichoke hearts,
    and peppers. Transfer to a big bowl and add the chicken broth, pesto, oregano
    and hot sauce. Dissolve the cornstarch in this mixture.

    ONION MIX Meanwhile, in a large saucepan or wok over medium heat, sweat the
    onion until well-browned, adding oil only if needed. Add chopped garlic to wok
    and saute for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the wine.

    BEAN SAUCE: Stirring constantly, add the tomato mixture to the wok and cook
    into a sauce; adding more broth or water if needed. Adjust to taste with salt
    and pepper. Add the cannellini beans and heat them. Add the parsley.

    Meanwhile, cook the pasta al dente. Drain. Serve pasta on heated plates (if
    possible) and spoon sauce over, garnish with freshly grated Asiago.

    Variations/Substitutions
    Substitute 1 leek for the onion.
    Substitute 1 16-oz can of ‘recipe ready’ ripe roma tomato concasse for the
    fresh tomato.
    Substitute broad egg noodles for the pappardelle.

    1995 (c) Lynn Fischer: Healthy Indulgences
    “Pappardelle with Roasted Red Peppers, Artichoke Hearts, and Cannellini Beans”

    NOTES : “Pappardelle is my pasta of choice for this and many other savory
    dishes. It is a long, inch-wide flat pasta. Smaller shapes like fusilli or
    penne are excellent too. A sure bet for a quick dinner, this recipe takes 20
    minutes from start to finish.” — Lynn Fischer
    “This sauce is rich and creamy. Serve as the second course with Italian bread.”
