Morning all, kicked oldest son off for a minutes so I could check in. Dinner last night was a simple meal of chili mac. Not really interesting but edible. Tonight for dinner we are going to a neighborhood block party, eating I'm sure lots of stuff that will be bad for the waist line. My contribution will be a cinnamon coffee cake and bbq meatballs.

Hope everyone has a safe New Year's.

I am planning on getting the OFFICIAL OLD ITALIAN RECIPE... so just wait... I will post it... it isn't fishy like you would think. If you like Ceaser dressing and you can't taste the anchovy in that you would like Anchovy pasta.... very little anchovy taste if at all.... YUM-O.... I don't like anchovies to be honest....

Now... the OLD aunts Anchovy Cookies... gag me with a spoon.... blah

Lacey.... if you mean- bread crumbs yes....

My MIL makes it every Christmas.... Hubby wants me to make it.... thought I would be able to get out of it after 7 years... I hate the smell of anchovies... but he is begging me to get the recipe from her....

You really can't taste them at all in there.... but it is the fact that I am going to be touching those little suckers..... LOL... yup another of THOSE things....

NIK I have no idea how to make it.... it was passed down to my MIL.... Lacey can give it up if she has it handy....

skbs, Lacey, Nik: This is how I make mine.

1/2 c imported, flat anchovies (Cento) chopped
lots of chopped garlic
extra voo
1/4 minced onion
chopped fresh parsley stems discarded
fresh black pepper

simmer covered for about 20 mins. the anchovies disappear

I sometimes use this recipe and through in a can of chopped clams and/or baby shrimp. Pour over al dente angel hair, pass the Peccorino Romano cheese, a loaf of crusty bread and salad. Enjoy and it is delicious.

OT Thank you everyone for your prayers and support yesterday.

We had the leftover lasagna again last night, I just didn't feel like cooking. Tonight I will make the split chicken breasts.

Will check in later with our NY Eve snacks. kelsie

Very easy! Use either can of anchovies (if you can get anchovy paste-better).

In small frying pan-olive oil, lots of garlic, hot pepper flakes, anchovies. Anchovies will melt and meld right in.
Separate pan toast bread crumbs that you mixed with olive oil, heat and brown-watch carefully.
Add sauce and crumbs to cooked pasta.

skbs: open the can, chop them right in the can and pick them up with a spoon, add the anchovy oil to your pan, leftover anchovies can be frozen in plastic wrap and in a tupperware.

Kelsie and Lacey, thank you! That seems so easy and yummy. EVOO and garlic, of course that'll be good! I do have both canned anchovy and anchovy paste in a tube. I use anchovy when I make spaghetti sauce. No one can taste it, but it does give good flavor. I used know a girl who put a can on sardine in her spaghetti sauce, I guess it does pretty much the same thing.
