Sep. 24th, 2005 10:02 amRecently I've been packing some little antipasto & crackers snacks in my lunch. They're not bad - though I've had better antipasto - and they're pretty expensive for the tiny portion that you get. All week, as I've been spooning antipasto out of these tiny tins I've been toying with the thought that antipasto couldn't be that hard to make. I remember that mom made some very yummy antipasto a few years ago. Mind you, it took the better part of a day, and it made the house smell pretty funky.
I'm all about funky smells. I can do that.
I would contact mom about her recipe, but I think she threw it out after making one batch, so I to turned to my other source of answers; the internet. Now Google may be the next big, invasive, evil corporation and second coming of the anti-Christ, but they've got some damn fine eats hidden away in their search engine. That is, I've found some very good recipes using their search engine. When in doubt, go with what you know. The very first recipe I found looks promising, except that it starts off with, "1 3/8 liters V-8 juice".
You know, because metric measuring cups are conveniently marked off into eighths. I wonder if this recipe was made by one of the people who produce those brain teasers? "How would you measure out exactly 3/8 of a litre of juice using a 1 litre jug, a 1 pint measuring cup and a bathroom scale." I think I'll be scouring for other recipes before I try this one.
