cellio- 3 ears corn
- 2 largish tomatoes
- 1 large red onion
- 1 large zucchini (zucchinus?)
- 2 peaches
- 9 Bartlett pears
Total weight about 7.5 pounds.
Two peaches aren't enough to make cobbler; we'll just have to eat them straight, or grilled -- so not a hardship! That's a lot of pears; I should look for a pie recipe or make pearsauce, maybe. (Are Bartletts good in pies? I think I've usually baked with Bosc, though I don't have a ton of experience either way.)

Date: 2022-08-26 08:41 pm (UTC)Although I know some of my Campanian-American relatives' characteristic cooking argot (e.g., "monigott" for "manicotti," "rigot" for "ricotta," etc.), I don't think I've ever heard one of them refer to a zucchini in the singular. I know we don't say "zucchino" in English, but I thought it might be amusing for me to speak Italian-American to Italian-American on this one.
