Let’s defrost some Sunday Sauce because today, we’re making eggplant armigiana. Eggplant Parm is another labor of love dish. It’s a number of steps, takes some time but is so, so good. This is another dish where Nonna would stand over the stove for hours making it for us; classic and timeless. I should also mention that eggplant parmigiana is one of my favorite things to eat. And, if you know me well, you know I make/eat a lot of different things. So, when I say I LOVE eggplant parmigiana, it means something...

Sunday Supper: It All Starts With the Sauce...

Italian tomato sauce is a labor of love. It’s also the cooking liquid for various meats that are served alongside a huge platter of pasta. A Nonna would begin making her sauce early on Sunday morning, while the rest of us were still deep in our REM sleep cycle. They did this because once the sauce had reached bubbly perfection; they could begin creating all the other delicious dishes that would cover the Sunday dinner table.
