- Comments: Connie Capani of Binghamton, New York, writes: "I am 100 percent Italian, so perhaps it's no surprise which I love food: To Italians, it's like a security blanket. I learned how to make spaghetti and other Abruzzi favorites from my mother. Looking at food magazines is what got me interested in venturing out into American culinary territory. I wanted to know how to make a "gravy" which didn't include tomatoes. I often make a roast with gravy, but our guests usually request some of my baked eggplant marinara to go along with it."
- Connie makes this ahead of time and refrigerates it, then reheats it before serving.
