“You better cut the pizza in four pieces because I’m not hungry enough to eat six.”
Yogi Berra

"Believe it or not, American’s eat 75 acres of pizza a day."
Boyd Matson

"The dishes of the present day are very light, and they have a particular delicacy and perfume. The secret has been discovered of enabling us to eat more and to eat better, as also to digest more rapidly....The new cookery is conductive to health, to good temper, and to long life....Who could enumerate all the dishes of the new cuisine? It is an absolutely new idiom. I have tasted viands prepared in so many ways and fashioned with such art that I could not imagine what they were."
Louis Sebastien Mercier

Mint Pesto

 

Ingredients

2 cup firmly packed mint leaves
1 tbsp chopped nuts
1/4 tsp salt
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 olive oil
3 tbsp grated parmesan cheese



 

Preparation

Toss the fresh mint leaves into a food processor or blender along
with the salt, garlic and nuts. (Pine nuts are good; walnuts are
okay also.)

Start the food processor and then slowly add olive oil. Don't process
too long or add too much oil; aim for a consistency that can be
spread with a knife. When done processing, remove it to a dish and
stir in the cheese.

This is great spread across the top of broiled salmon or halibut
fillets. You can also toss it with pasta as a simple side dish, or
add broiled or steamed slices of chicken, seafood, or vegetables to
make a main dish.
