About Sunday Sauce ItalianAmerican Recipes

 





SUNDAY SAUCE

"It's Pure BLISS"





On SUNDAY SAUCE



If you grew up in an Italian family like I did, chances are you had Sunday Dinner  (at 1:00 PM) each week with your family. And, if you were lucky enough like I was, that included your extended family. Each week from when I was a child until well into my 20’s, we were all at my Nonna's house every Sunday for dinner and it was ALWAYS  Sunday Sauce (If you are Italian and you aren’t eating Macaroni and a red sauce on Sunday, is it even Sunday? lol)

Maybe you are wondering about Sunday Gravy? Let me help settle the debate…it’s always Sauce and never Gravy (LOL). Italian Sauce vs Italian Gravy really depends on what it’s called in your Italian family. Another commonly used term you may have heard for the traditional Italian sauce is Sugo. 

This tradition, though I didn’t appreciate it at the time, was something that just isn’t possible in today’s world of activiti

es, sports, and other obligations.  Looking back now, it’s those family dinners became a big part of who I am. Whenever possible, l will have family dinner and make my Authentic Italian Sunday Sauce and try to keep the tradition going in some way.

Going to ROSCIOLI of Rome NYC New York

 



ROSCIOLI of ROME

MacDougal Street

GREENWICH VILLAGE, NY






ROSCOLI Comes to NEW YORK

"When we talk about Italian Cuisine, it's all about Grandmothers (Nonna)."
..... Alessandro Pepe - ROSCIOLI NY ....

Minute 1:50 on Video








ROSCIOLI  NEW YORK




Well, it's finally happening. After trying to get in for the past 5 months, 
I'm going to ROSCIOLI tonight. Having dinner with a couple friends.

Roscioli, a famous Salumeria / Italian Food Emporium of Rome Italy, has come to New York. 
The Roscioli family have come to New York. They have partnered with Alessandro Pepe and
Ariel Arce to open an outpost of their famous Salumeria / Trattoria in New York.

Yes, me and some friends have wanted to go for almost 5 months now. Well, if I really tried, I could have gotten in sooner, but I wasn't pushing it. Been quite busy in those 5 months, and was eager to go through all the Riga Ramo to get it in. My buddy Rob called me last week and said he got us a table for February 1st. "Cool" It was going to be just the two of us, but a good friend asked if she could come too, so Rob called to see if we could add another, and Alessandro said it was OK, so there we go, me, Rob, and Alyssa make up our group. Rob is a wine salesman in New York, and is selling Alessandro wine at Roscioli, so we were able to get a table. We would have went sooner, but something came up, and Alessandro had to fly bakc to Italy for a couple months. We were waiting for him to come back, and then we'd go. And now the time has come, and me , Alyssa, and Rob are quite excited. We're going tonight.

To Be CONTINUED !!!

We'll eat at Roscioli tonight. I will finish writing this piece tomorrow or the next day. Naturally I have to go and eat, and drink, and experience the vibe, and gather the experience and info, before I can write about it. So, "Caio for now. See you all tomorrow."

Carbone Sunday Sauce Meatballs NYC

 



Waiting for Meatballs

Italian-Americans Eating SUNDAY SAUCE

"GRAVY" 





MARIO CARBONE Makes SUNDAY SAUCE

ITALIAN-AMERICAN GRAVY


"We posted this video for 2 reasons. First of all, it's Sunday Sauce, so we put it up on that alone. Secondly it's Mario Carbone talking about and making his version of Sunday Sauce. Mario Carbone in Chef and a partner at Carbone Restaurant in Geenwich Village. The restaurant is famous and controversial for its very high prices. Some people love it, others don't. Anyway, Mario is here making his version, which looks pretty good, but the instructional part of this piece is disappointing and not good at all. It should be better, but it's not. We have posted better versions on how to make Sunday Sauce below, and for the defining word and recipe on SUNDAY SAUCE, get a copy of SUNDAY SAUCE - When Italian-Americans Cook by Daniel Bellino, Sunday Sauce, the cookbook is Available on Amazon.com and makes a Great Gift to yourself, friends or family, for Christmas, Birthdays and all occasions.
