Funny thing when you have a cat, I was working on this post the other night. I did not finish it and was planning on working on it in the morning. Well Archie, decided to walk across the keyboard and published this post. I did not realize it until I was at work the next day and received the post in my email. I read the title and thought, "What?" And it gets better, someone commented on the post. Lucky Archie is so cute!
Anyway here is the blog post -
Tonight we finally ate the
Pizzagaina. Oh it is so worth the work and money. The crust, fugettaboutit. Spot on is what I would call it. The filling did not disappoint. I added some Sweet Capicola just because.
And I could not serve just Pizzagaina. I made a Caesar Salad using Romaine and Radicchio. The dressing was a variation of Lidia Bastianich's recipe. I left out the anchovies and the garlic.
Caesar Salad Dressing from
Lidia's Italian American Kitchen-
Ingredients-
2 tbsp red wine vinegar
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
4 cloves of garlic
4 anchovy fillets
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 hard-boiled egg yolk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
fresh ground black pepper
Method-
Combine the vinegar, lemon juice,
garlic, and anchovies in a blender or work bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth, adding some of the 1/3 cup olive oil if there is not enough liquid to move the mixture around the blender jar. Add the mustard, hard-boiled egg yolk, salt, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and remaining olive oil if any. Blend until smooth and creamy. Taste the dressing; if it's a little too tangy, pour in a splash or two of olive oil and blend until it's incorporated.

This is the comment that was left on the cat published post. I love when people leave comments so I felt bad that the original post was deleted with the comment. Luckily I save emails.
