Notes about Recipes in this book

• Sweet and sour glazed pork chops (Maiale in agrodolce)

    A very nice, simple glaze that can be used on chicken and fish as well. Will keep this one in my back pocket.

    Made this with center cut pork chops rather than rib chops and did not French them. My chops were a little smaller than called for in the recipe, so cut back the grill time to 10 minutes. The glaze really added a nice touch and we thoroughly enjoyed them. Doubt this will become a staple recipe due to the amount of butter and sugar. Plain grilled pork chops are pretty delicious in and of themselves!

• Stewed sweet peppers (Peperonata)

    I needed to cook this uncovered at the end for quite a while to reduce the water. Next time I will start with a bit less, maybe 100 ml, and see what difference that makes. Also, use less vinegar. Start with 1 tablespoon and then add more to taste once peppers have cooled.
