This is the biggest, and possibly craziest challenge I have ever been a part of. I am among a group of 9 who are going to cook our way through Marcella Hazan's cookbook Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking.
For those of you who may not know who Marcella Hazan is, she has been credited with bringing true Italian cooking to America. She has won numerous awards, including a knighthood from her home country of Italy.

Amacord is her autobiography, and a fascinating read. Her life growing up in war torn Italy and the beginnings of her cooking schools in America. I admire her, and hope one day to meet her.
(Which is why I hope we can get through this challenge without slaying her recipes and techniques.)

We have decided to post our recipes daily on Facebook in a group called Pomodori e Vino~ which means tomatoes and wine. I hope that all y'all will become friends and follow along this process.
We get started this sunday.
