James Barber Passes Away
Dec. 3rd, 2007 03:28 pmSadness. James Barber, the TV chef known as "The Urban Peasant", has passed away at the age of 84. He was a lot of fun to watch, had great recipes, and looooooooooooved garlic and fresh-ground pepper (which made food "wonderful").
In his honor, what's your favorite food -- or recipe! -- with garlic? I love garlic in damn near anything. Fresh minced garlic on a pizza. Roasted whole cloves of garlic in pretty much any Italian sauce. (When I go to Macaroni Grill for Pollo Marsala and ask for "extra garlic", they throw in nearly a dozen roasted cloves. Mmmmmmmm.) Sliced garlic crisps as a garnish on soup. Garlic mashed potatoes. Bruschetta and garlic bread in nearly any form. Garlic bagels.
Thanks to
matociquala for the heads-up.
