After the repeated sacking of Rome the Renaissance brought back the biscotti. It was a Tuscan baker who created the dry, crunchy biscuit which was deemed to be the perfect medium to soak up wine. Thank heavens this fabulous biscuit has crossed the pond where ERUUF’s own Pat Yonaitis will bake 8 bags of this sweet delight.

Louisiana Gumbo – SOLD
Apr 3rd
Gumbo is a Louisiana soup or stew which reflects and blends the rich cuisines of regional Indian, French, Spanish, and African cultures. The word “gumbo” is derived African term for okra, “gombo,” and first appeared in print in 1805. Well, ERUUF’s very own Becky Burks is going to make enough crab and shrimp gumbo to feed 8. It’s probably better in cool weather, but she could do it any time with 2 weeks notice. And she will furnish rice on the side. Yum.
