Marcella Haza...I just had to respond to this post. Marcella Hazan is fabulous Italian cook whose book can teach anyone what real italian food is all about and how to cook it. One of my first cookbooks given to me by a dear friend, it always sits nearest the kitchen as a quick re reference and should in any kitchen as a reminder of what Italian food is really about, simplicity.

As a newlywed, moving from Rome to the States, it was what a called my "food memory bank". Julia Child and Marzella Hazan were the perfect teachers to help translate my Italian food memories into meals I tried to prepare in my American kitchen.

This is the flavor I've been searching for since before 911 occurred. <br />I had tried & tried to get the mild yet flavorful green beans that they served along the Autostrade in all of Italy. We toured from top to bottom & I swear I ate them at every rest area's stop. They served them at room temperature. You've brought back some wonderful memories of that trip.<br /><br />I made these for tonight's supper & they are marinating as I type. Even without any EVOO or S&P yet, I can tell they are PERFECT! It must be the white wine vinegar that is so mild. I had tried using balsamic (dark & white) & I tried red wine & I tried champagne vinegar. I also never got the exact combination of herbs like this has. I'd used thyme once & rosemary only once. None of those attempts matched the flavor I remembered.<br /><br />Thank you, thank you for posting this today. Now I'm off to see if I can buy some of Marcella Hazan's books.<br /><br />Mega grateful hugs,<br />RettRettabughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09974677657528087286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8986801201760240722.post-59115081112684513522011-07-15T16:44:28.555-04:002011-07-15T16:44:28.555-04:00These sound absolutely delicious Mary.
