Appetizing Muse Shenanchie's Food Journal 230029 Curiosities served |
2004-07-21 6:46 PM Swimming in Sin Previous Entry :: Next Entry Read/Post Comments (1) Food was sinfully delicious on my house today. Not everyone might think so, but I was swimming in a sea of culinary decadence.
First up was guacamole spread down the middle of a flour tortilla (which was heated on the stove element, giving it a touch of crispness); I couldn’t help myself and had two. Later, I threw together a recipe created by my cousin Sheila called “Coppa Canapés.” The little appetizer is simply to die for. Since the recipe is no longer displayed at Shenanchie’s Kitchen, I’ve pasted it below:
It’s hard to describe how wonderful the treat is; I believe fresh basil is the key. The Capicollo is a tad expensive ($6.95 per pound at a little Italian market near my house), but the other two ingredients are basic. Sheila has a large herb garden at her ranch, and one day a few years ago she devised her canapés using the basil. The dried variety will not do; nothing can replace the taste of the fresh basil and the exquisite flavor combinations it brings to the Capicollo, cream cheese and baguette bread. I’m sure they are not technically canapés, but that’s the name Sheila gave them. Read/Post Comments (1) Previous Entry :: Next Entry Back to Top |
