Sorry it took so long, this was harder than I thought. Here goes my series of Haiku about Carbonara:
ReplyDelete#1
first; ingredients
Italian pok sausage
prosciutto or ham
#2
hot, cooked spaghetti
freshly grated parmesan
freshly minced parsley
#3
next we set the mood
vintage old country verses
or Rat Pack refrains
#4
only light enough-
candlelight works quite nicely
to cook and read by
#5
by all means do not
save the wine for dinnertime
imbibe while cooking
#6
I forgot the eggs
two or three well beaten eggs
crucial to the dish
#7
let us get started
coarsely crumble the sausage
and half the ham, chopped
#8
add this meat mixture
to buttered, wide frying pan
cook on medium
#9
cook for ten minutes
stirring combo constantly
'til ham is frazzled
#10
now blend uncooked ham
with the cooked sausage mixture
take a drink of wine
#11
add hot spaghetti
to meats, add butter, parsley
mix quickly to blend
#12
pour in beaten eggs
lift and mix the spaghetti
coating well with egg
Mangia!
