Are there people who follow on-line Peppi's recipes on a regular
basis ? For years I have ignored Cheap Thrills Cuisine' believing
there is nothing good in recipes which come as a comic strip, until
there was a recipe for lamb noisettes which attracted my attention as
I am a big fan of lamb.

Those are not your favorite recipes from Iron Chef or acrobatics from
Michelin's restaurant, but are straightforward, simple and they came
out delicious.
After that I got more interested and have tried Vichyssoise soup
their way, portobelo Provencal, Sicilian ciopino...

Now we make something from Cheap Thrills Cuisine few times a year
whenever something interesting pops-up, those are totally good
recipes and a far cry from comics as I believed.

I've never made anything from that, but somebody used to post those...
was it Andy? Nice to see you again. Are you still posting here under
a different pen name?

Nah, I am just more a lurker than a poster. And I am surprized that
people don't pay more attention to chef Peppy's recipes (chef Lombardo
in a real life), given his "comic" strip is published in number of
daily newspapers across USA and Canada, just beside Garfield,
Doonesbury, Peanuts...

Perhaps because people are skeptics just as I was, when it comes to
recipes in a form of a comic strip.
Especialy as many of his recipes have a note of Italy, as Mr. Lombardo
is of Italian heritage.
