Mmmm. this is definitely worth making a list and checking it twice before the Day. It would be naughty to discover you’d forgotten the apricots or orange and I can smell it now, it needs it all. Looks a bit British or Canadian. A hob is a “stove burner” in the USA. The bacon (if used instead of pancetta) probably is meant to be Canadian bacon, not the strips that are commonly fried in the States. Did I get that right?

Pretty close.. it came from my old chef from northern Michigan, but you are correct he is a limey.. After 60 in the USA, he still has an accent, and I found myself picking up his colloquialisms .. Great EYE my FRiend.. It’s so good to see so many of the old guard still around.. feels soooooo good to see everyone again.. Carlo

I forgot to respond to you inquiry about the bacon.. I use plain inexpensive bacon, not Canadian.. too much flavor in the Canadian variety.. The pancetta option, is my hat tip to my Italian cronies.. :)
