Personal Notes:
This recipe comes from my Great Grandfather (Pépé). It is super easy, and very tasty. Fun facts: My great grandfather lived to 102 years old. He played golf until the age of 90, and maintained his membership at the same golf course for 55 years. The photo below is him receiving the “Boston Post Golden Cane” for being the oldest resident in his town.
