I have a taste for spaghetti. Think I'll make some.

[CatWoman]

I have ground beef, and ground sausage.

Should I use one of the other, or both?

[Cerridwen]

1. I vote both :D

I'm boiling the water for the pasta now - seriously, I'm having bscetti tonight, myself.

mmmmmmmmmm

:toast:

[CatWoman]

2. do you add onions to your sauce?

[Maddy McCall]

4. I do.

And bell peppers. Yum! :9

[CatWoman]

8. damn!! I knew I forgot something

the durn bell peppers!!!!

[Cerridwen]

7. Onions! And lots of garlic. I have no plans for human interaction

this evening and my dogs love me anyway, so tons of garlic.

I usually make meatballs for my sauce and throw in some sweet sausage and hot sausage. I don't usually eat the sausage but it's so great for the flavoring. And my meatballs are to die for. They too, have lots of garlic and onions.

Yeah, yeah, this ain't no date food.

:rofl:

[Maddy McCall]

3. Ooooo. Both.

What time's it ready? I can bring the mushrooms and parmesan. :D

[billbuckhead]

5. I use chicken sometimes alone sometimes with sausage.

I've seen antique Italian restaurant menus with spaghetti and sardines as a choice.

[CatWoman]

10. BB!!!!!

How's it going!!!

:hi:

I've seen the sardines thing when I was stationed in Europe.

Not my cup of tea x(

[billbuckhead]

18. Bon Appetite Mademoiselle

:hi: Sardines aren't mine either, but try the chicken.

[kedrys]

6. Spaghetti here as well

Italian sausage sauce, and yes, it has onions in it.

Bon appetit! :9

[bertha katzenengel]

9. we too, but we're out of onions, I'll just add some garlic, and all

I have on hand is frozen turkey meatballs. Nothing fancy at the Waldorf Cat Haven tonight.

[wanpete]

11. definitely both! Happy eating!

[Terran]

12. Secret ingredient:

anchovie paste. You can't taste the anchovies, per se, but it will give your sauce a deep rich flavor, and you won't need to salt it either. Do everything else as you would do otherwise (garlic, onions, I'd skip the bell pepper). Maybe a little red wine?? :toast:

edit: typo; actually, sausage with anchovie paste = putanesca sauce. YUM, it's da best!!

[CatWoman]

13. Yes!!! red wine!!!

hey sweet thang!!

:hi:

[Terran]

14. Hiya!

While you're enjoying your deliiisssshhus spaghetti, think of me at work enjoying another GD tuna sandwich for dinner.

But seriously, get some anchovie paste and try it next time; you will NOT regret it sweetie!

[CatWoman]

15. I will!! Promise!!

I like anchovie paste in caesar salad, too.

:D

:loveya:

[Terran]

16. Mmm, me too.

That's about the only place I like whole anchovies; on pizza: yuck!

17. Spaghetti Sauce, Godfather Style

Only in the old Italian neighborhoods in NY, no one would ever call it that; it was 'gravy'. :)

Clemenza: Heh, come over here, kid, learn something. You never know, you might have to cook for twenty guys someday. You see, you start out with a little bit of oil. Then you fry some garlic. Then you throw in some tomatoes, tomato paste, you fry it. Ya' make sure it don't stick. You get it to a boil, you shove in all your sausage and your meatballs, eh? Add a little bit o' wine. An' a little bit o' sugar, and that's my trick.
