"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

"We always used this on mashed potato salad." Mom

Did I mention that Grandma McCormack was my mom's mom? She was an amazing lady and great cook. So much fun to be with. She lived in Kewanee and in the summer I would get to stay with her overnight. Her neighbors had a really mean dog and I was trapped in the yard one day by the dog. Lucky I didn't get bitten cause there were a lot of postmen with ripped pants and butt stitches.
