Sausage and peppers
"Sausage and peppers is Italian-American street-fair food first — it was built for a roll and a napkin, not a white tablecloth." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/recipes/sausage-and-peppers)
Doneness
"Pork sausage is done at 160°F. Color lies; a thermometer doesn't." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/sausage-and-peppers/by-the-numbers)
Peppers
"Cook the peppers until they slump, not until they surrender. You want sweet and soft with a little backbone." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/sausage-and-peppers/guide)
History
"Nobody can name the first person who put sausage and peppers in a pan, and anyone who says they can is selling something." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/sausage-and-peppers/history)
Sunday gravy
"Gravy or sauce is a family argument, not a recipe question. Make it the way your table calls it." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/guides/sunday-gravy)
Sweet vs hot
"Sweet sausage is about fennel; hot sausage is about pepper flake. Neither one is about sugar." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/guides/sweet-vs-hot-italian-sausage)
Italian food history
"Pasta did not arrive in Italy in Marco Polo's luggage — that story is a legend the evidence doesn't support." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/italian-food-history)
Hosting
"Feed a crowd sausage and peppers and you only need three things: a big pan, good rolls, and nobody counting." — Uncle Larry, Uncle Larry Adventures (https://unclelarryadventures.com/guides/italian-game-day-food)
