While three-quarters of
a pound of macaroni are boiling in salted water prepare the following:
Chop up fine two ounces of
ham fat with a
little parsley. Peel six
medium-sized tomatoes, cut them open, remove the seeds, and any hard or
unripe parts, and put them on one side.
Take a frying-pan and put
into it one scant tablespoon of butter and the chopped ham fat.
When the grease is colored
put in the sliced
tomatoes with salt and pepper.
When the tomatoes are cooked
and begin
to sputter put the macaroni
into the pan with them, mix well, add grated Parmesan cheese, and serve.
