scorpacciata is a word i encountered in the Mario Batali cookbook 'Babbo'. it means to eat not only seasonally, but hyper-seasonally. to consume as much as you can of something, while you can. apricots come to mind. asparagus. heirloom tomatoes. this will be a blog about cooking.... and pop-culture ephemera.... basically the detritus in my brain
I've mentioned before that it's been a late/lousy tomato season. Things are starting to happen now. Pictured is the onion bit -- toasted fennel seeds, garlic, onion, oregano, bay leaf, a couple of heirlooms. In the 2nd pic, the 2nd pot is the tomato sauce/paste in the pot that I had food milled it into.
