knife

pot

Cooking instruction summary:

The roast should be studded with the cloves at even intervals all over. Use of small paring knife to create small incisions in which the cloves can be inserted. Since the round is rather dry, it helps also to lard it with some fatty cured pork (see Notes).In terra-cotta or enamel cast iron Dutch oven not too much bigger than the roast, brown the roast all over in the lard or olive oil. When the roast in nicely brown, add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and parsley, and season everything generously with salt and pepper. Let these aromatics saut until they are quite soft, turning the meat so that it absorbs their flavors. Then add a good splash of red wine and let it evaporate, again turning the meat so it absorbs the wine.Add the tomato, enough to cover (or almost cover) the roast, along with a few more cloves if you like. Cover the pot and lower the heat so the liquid gently simmers. Let the roast braise until it is tender but not falling apartthis should take about 1-1/2 or 2 hours. Taste and adjust for seasoning. Let the roast rest off heat for a few minutes, then slice as many portions as you think you'll need, arranging the slices on a serving platter, napping some of the sauce over them. Like any braised dish, garofolato can be made ahead and reheated when you're ready to eat.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
