Linda, I’m there with you. Marketman, we only say these things because all of your food subjects has been fabulous and I continue to drool just thinking about it. Hahahaa

goodtimer, glad the pasta worked for you. I haven’t made ribs in ages so I will have to research to answer your question. But if I recall correctly, some bbq places in the states boil their ribs before barbecuing… and I HAVE already hosted a lunch last November…it’ll probably be a while before we do another one… :)

MM,please(on my bended knee)host a lunch or dinner for your readers(even if it’ll take a year to organise – for the benefit of those abroad).

Wilson, that’s funny, I was a student of Marvele for two semesters and decided to leave the opera world to something else, food addiction. What would the world do without JD the opera singer!!hahahha. It seems like you’re my lost twin, I too sing opera in the kitchen, specially when my cooking is not doing well…If Marketman host a lunch or dinner party we both can sing an aria,hahahha.

The pictures made me salivate! Can’t wait to get my hands on pitik and crabs (maybe from dampa?) and some shellfish to cook this recipe for Sunday lunch. I just cooked your penne pasta recipe for dinner and couldn’t resist to polish off 2 bowlfulls before my son joined me. Had bbq beef (short) ribs too but the meat came out tough. I forgot to tell the cook to tenderize the meat first by simmering in its marinade. Is there a better way to cook bbq ribs??

mojito_drinker, I just put a kilo or so of bisugo or a selection of fish in a pot with water, an onion, tomato or two, some some leek and or parsely and some salt and peppercorns and cover with water and boil for 30-40 minutes and strain. It should smell good but it isn’t as intense as a good chicken or beef broth. MM, it tasted great as well!
