{"product_id":"remembering-recipes-irene-palescandolo-9780595309528","title":"Remembering Recipes","description":"My recollections of the first time I entered the spacious, bustling kitchen of Villa Joe's restaurant brings me back a long stretch of years. I was twenty years old when I stepped into the dynamic heart of the restaurant. I was simply dazzled by the abundance of food, cooked and uncooked, in escalating stages of preparation, all being assembled, concocted, confected into forms creatively visual and delectable. As a promising fashion designer I was enthralled by the scene so artistic in my eyes. I saw a palette of colors, the modeling of textures and contours as if designed and draped at a couturier's studio. I had a sixth sense I would like to be a part of this activity. \u003cp\u003eMy husband Frank's mother was busy at the antipasto table sorting salad greens, chicory and arugula. Frank introduced me to her. I said, \"Hello, may I help you?\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eYou may find yourself matching recipes with the lighthearted fables in my husband's memoir, \u003ci\u003eA Remembrance of a Restaurant; A Decameron of Dining\u003c\/i\u003e, or his other works, \u003ci\u003eUnder Blue Skies of Naples\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eChez Dogs\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eNaples of Salvatore DiGiacomo\u003c\/i\u003e, which might grant a realized recipe added piquancy.
