I raided the spice cupboard regularly and made "potions" which later became sauces and mustards. Owner: ChefOnCall.ca Now a chef in Vancouver. Author; The Food-Love Equation.

When I ran Victoria Park Restaurant near Toronto, I misspelled this beautiful dish on the menu. Only then did a beautiful 98 year old Italian Grandma set me straight and also came into our kitchen to show me her own twist. She said it was the only thing Italian bachelors knew how to make for themselves after a night of too much "vino". She then asked for a little red vino. I assumed it would be tossed in to the pan upon completion. She simple drank it, and told me I was "not-a-bad".
