The Pork Chop in the Window - Paperback

by Gloria Carnevale (Author)

The Pork Chop in the Window A Madcap Family Memoir with Over 30 Retro Recipes "Ever since I can remember, dying meant fried veal cutlets," says Gloria Carnevale. "Put a pork chop in the window and my family will come." Here's Aunt Santa, Johnny Potatoes, Grandma Cracker and Aunt Marie, carrying the frozen side of beef she's sure she could never find upstate. You could probably live forever without knowing about the Pocket Lasagna, Jewish Pizza, and the Double-Wide Pocketbook, but life is short and it got a lot shorter for Gramma after eating that biscotti from three presidents ago. Kick-Ass Meatballs, Never Live It Down Stew, and Get the Lead Out Easter Pies join more than thirty honest-to-cholesterol, politically incorrect recipes, all family favorites from the never-boring test kitchens of the author's insanely insatiable gang.
