Description

(Update as of 10/16 - looks like the wrong version of this was uploaded - oops - that's what we get for using a computer while high, lol - it's fixed now ). Wrapping up our six-part adventure journeying through Marcella's Italian Kitchen, we conclude with a slightly heartier, slightly unusual, and supported by egg white scaffolding, carrot cake. Marcella's cake uses ladyfingers cookies, fresh carrots and nuts, and tastes nothing like the sweet carrot cake of Becca's dreams, lol. Gretchen talks us through cream of tartar and baking soda, and we read Marcella's tips on storing and cooking your carrots. While we may be stepping away from this cookbook for a bit, Marcella's recipes, words (and opinions!), will remain in our hearts forever. In Marcella we trust (except for the tuna on the plane suggestion, and, just no).
