After months of friends having me over for dinner as I finished up my book, I am now back to hosting dinner parties again.
The other night my friends looked forward to the bread accompanying the mushroom ravioli with green peas and pearl onions and salad I had fixed for dinner. Later that evening while we were up in my office checking out possible book covers my friend Richard asked, “What’s that smell?” and we discovered the burnt pesto bread in the oven. Another friend asked for the recipe so here it is.
Burnt Bread Recipe
• Take several friends seat them in chairs
• Place buttered pesto bread in the oven at 350 degrees
• Do NOT set the timer
• Add fun stimulating conversation
• Pour a glass of wine for each person ( two or three glasses if you want the
charcoal to be extra crispy)
• Serve a yummy dinner with cherry pie for dessert
• Enjoy the smoky aroma of burnt bread as it fills the house.
WA lah!
