Although I am not a fish person, I got lost in the stories about the ceramics. Something about those tiles and those lady portraits and that blue was mesmerizing. I can imagine your crust too is exactly what I crave.

Will be reading it.<br />Of course, I loved all the details about Deruta. I'm mad for majolica and this is lovely in an entirely different manner than the pieces I have in my collection. <br /><br />And your research about Scappi. Wonderful. Did not know that about pie crust, but it makes complete sense. It's a "holder" of something after all. (I do adore a good crust!)<br /><br />Your fish pie makes a lovely presentation! So many meat and fish recipes have a sweet element to them, I like it.<br />Only have had eel once and liked it. Too bad they look like snakes; that turns people off. But then, I like all sorts of odd things. I did a post on beef tongue once and it grossed everyone out. :)<br />Barbarahttp://www.moveablefeastscookbook.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8778626287556834261.post-71148309359237616742014-02-11T16:05:00.823-08:002014-02-11T16:05:00.823-08:00That looks like 2 books I ought to reed.

While "we" might find the idea of a fish pie a little unusual, the ingredients list makes perfect sense - those sweet and savory flavors sound wonderful, and who would ever turn down a little buttery pastry on top of it all?T.W.

But when you read the history and know where these things originated, so much more understanding unfolds. I am very curious about how all these unexpected flavors come together. You are a master. I could see you teaching a class on such recipes in a setting of a history class. BRAVO! And you come to visit me and to leave a comment? You are too, too kind! I wish you LOVE and joy in every sense of the concept of love, Deana. We enjoy your art and passion and thank you for keeping the past alive.<br /><br />MUCH LOVE!

It sounds absolutely delicious and perfect for winter. I'm not sure about the eel, though :) <br /><br />I don't recall if you were one of the kind people to email me, but if you've tried to come to my blog recently, it's been locked by Blogger.
