“Clam sauce.”

I’ve fallen for that one before, Rob.

Clams don’t smell like that.

*fap fap fap fap fap*

I make a mean clam sauce… just a wee bit o’ cream, well-diced clams, clam juice, a nice dry white, gah-lick, white pepper, parm (though I have been adventurous and left out the parm in favor of a tiny bit of goat cheese – NOT feta).

Reduce.

Serve over pasta and occasionally throw a scallop or three on top for good measure.

Ahhhh. But you don’t live there now?

I’m northern tip of Bucks County, not far from Philly or NJ.

I’m from right across the bridge in NJ. Basically right across 2 bridges. Ben and Walt.

Are you from Philly?

And I seek your non-fancy recipe.

It isn’t fancy. It’s old school what the Sou’ Fluffya peeps referred to as “gravy.”

Oh, there’s nothing weird about the squash. It’s no bizarre food. It’s good, earthy, farmer food.

And I demand you divulge your sauce secrets.

I demand!

Don’t make me throw a tantrum.

I’ll put my spaghetti sauce up against yours. It has no fennel. It does have secret magic that has rendered a whole cadre of bookstore employees into slavering morons.

I’d do the squash if my husband wasn’t so… pedestrian.

And it’s mmm-mmm-good.

Lemme know how it turns out!
