"Plain fresh bread, its crust shatteringly crisp. Sweet cold butter. There is magic in the way they come together in your mouth to make a single perfect bite."--Ruth Reichl

Personal Notes:
Dad's recipe is slightly different. He uses the same amount of meat, but instead of using bread crumbs, he uses saltine cracker crumbs, salt pepper and leaves out the marjoram. He bakes his the same way I do. He also uses just plain ketchup as a topping.
