A long simmering soup with fresh stuff thrown into the pot on a regular basis. Served with freshly ground, hot-out-of-the-oven, bread slathered with Fresh (no salt, please) Butter. Toss in a bottle of the wine the cook added to the broth. Afterwards a light salad with fresh veggies, black oil-cured olives, topped with a wee tad of the local cheese and herbs; dressed with REAL (20 year+) aged Balsamic Vinegar and olive oil.
Completely simple. Absolutely divine.
If the food is balanced then I agree.
good thing i've had my evening 'spaghettata all'incazzata' or i'd be heading for the kitchen! ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
