Worcestershire contains anchovies. Lots of Italians begin their red sauce with anchovies.

Never heard of a Louisianan beginning their jambalaya with anchovies, but I sure do see a lot of them using Worcestershire in their jambalaya.

I agree, cook it the way you want it.

But my point is, there does seem to be a many of baws using Worcestershire, cream of mushroom, and rotel in everything they cook. And 90% of them use it because they think they are supposed to.

No need to get upset. I'm just saying that Worcestershire doesn't belong in a true Italian sauce. I'm Sicilian and we cook pasta every Sunday and it doesn't go in. With that being said, yes, you can cook however you would like.

I think most Italians would have issues with your take on the dish. But I’m sure your stew tastes delicious

stew


In all seriousness, this is the correct term for this dish.

It doesn't bother me at all. We never called it that growing up, but my Italian friends did because that's what their parents and grandparents called it. They had it every Sunday and whatever you want to call it, it was delicious! Loved waking up there on Sunday mornings to that wonderful aroma.


This is absolutely true. My Italian friend says her mom started it early Sunday morning and left it cooking on low while they went to church. They came back and had Sunday dinner after church.

since we are talking about American bastardized versions of this dish. I would like to run this by the fine chefs of the F&D

I've been toying with the idea of trying this after reading a bunch of carne guisada recipes. I can't tell if it genius or retarded, thoughts?

Mexican Sunday gravy.

Add some fresh jalapeno or Poblano

add some Ancho and/or more dried peppers

Add cilantro instead of basil

Sub in some Charizo links

Serve over rice with tortillas

Keep everything else pretty much the same

Sounds pretty solid honestly, although personally, if I was going to through all of that, I would probably just make Birria.

True, I'd be interested to see what the chorizo would do. The kind we buy comes in a nonedible tube and you squeeze it out and cook it. I'm sure there is better quality out there though.

It's not a schtick, I'm not German because I make sausage.

Just make your fricking spaghetti how you want. You're from Kenner, not some dude named Giovanni from the foothills of Italy. Retarded arse arguement

Maybe not a shtick but just being a complete prick on a board that is pretty absent of trolling and people being dickheads. You probably dont know much about cooking and food except for the health part of it obviously. There is a board for that. The food you have posted looks like completely bland shite because your diet is whatever you brag about constantly on the OT.

Besides the money board, this is the last board on this site not polluted with bullshite like yours so I can say I probably speak for everyone in saying go elsewhere

I really hate agreeing with Mingo, but I hate people calling red sauce gravy even more.


I'm with you both. Gravy is flour, milk, grease, and seasoning.
