Kristen Bearse Published in Canada by Appetite by Random House, a division of Random House of Canada Limited, a Penguin Random House company www.randomhouse.ca v3.1 This book is dedicated to my mother, Erminia, or Nonna Mima as the family calls her. At ninety-three years of age, she still has a twinkle in her eyes and is full of love, affection, and wisdom. As my grandson Lorenzo, fourteen years old, put it in a recent speech: “To Nonna Mima, someone to whom seventy is young and anything over twenty dollars is expensive … Nonna Mima often says, ‘Experientia est magistra vitae,’ meaning ‘Experience is the teacher of life,’ and with ninety-three years of experience she should know.… The life knowledge passed down to me by Nonna Mima is invaluable. She is the fundamental force that drives me to excel and enjoy life. Her story is a story of perseverance, appreciation, imparting knowledge, but most importantly, never giving up hope.… Nonna Mima is the root of our family system.” Common sense in an uncommon degree is what the world calls wisdom. —Samuel Taylor Coleridge Common sense is not so common. —Voltaire Contents The Wisdom of the Table Acknowledgments Introduction Appetizers Anchovied Eggs Oregano Eggs Anchovy Frittata Peppers Piedmontese Mozzarella and Celery Salad Raw Garden Salad Seasoned Olives Chicken Breast Salad Boiled Beef Salad with Gherkins, Red Onion, and Parsley Tuna-Stuffed Artichokes Clam Bruschetta Tomato and Ricotta Crostini Baked Country Vegetables Rustic Ricotta Tart Ricotta and Vegetable Crostata Squash and Ricotta Tart Onion Tart Baked Toast Sandwiches Potato Pizza Genovese Focaccia Oatmeal Biscuits Salads Tomato and Mint Salad Carrot and Apple Salad Fennel and Gorgonzola Salad Belgian Endive and Walnut Salad String Beans, Capers, and Basil Salad Rustic Salad Cucumbers with Whole Wheat Couscous Chickpea Salad Lentil Country Salad Tuna, Corn, Mushroom, and Potato Salad Boiled Zucchini Salad with Tuna Soups Chicken Stock Country Onion Soup Spinach and Chickpea Soup Tomato and Clam Soup Toasted Grain Soup Swiss Chard and Lentil Soup Bread and Basil Soup Semolina and Escarole Soup Barley Soup Pasta and Bean Soup When in a Hurry Legume Soup from Abruzzo Chickpea Purée Soup Bean Soup “Le Marche” Style Cream of Celery Root Soup Millet Soup Country-Style Fava Soup Fava Bean Soup with Dried Figs Sauces
