Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
8/3: pane e panelle
...kind of. When Chris visited Sicily a few years ago, he came back with a fondness for chickpea fritters in a sandwich, something that's sold on the streets in Palermo. We've tried making panelle in earnest, but didn't have great luck with it, and we're wary of doing that much deep-frying in any case. But I made a bunch of chickpea pancakes that we stacked between slices of LaBrea Bakery bread, and that's a satisfying (and healthier) substitute. I just have to remember to squeeze lemon juice on the chickpea pancakes next time.
