Join me on my delicious journey revisiting American home cooking in the era before convenience foods became popular (1919 to 1955), as I bake and cook from old cookbooks and recipe cards of home cooks purchased at estate sales in Akron, Ohio, and other exotic locations.

The Ballet Cook Book Dinner, Part II
Check out the wonderful Antonio Carmena's latest performance, as he stars in this frenetic video of the second in our series of dinners from the 1966 Ballet Cook Book. I know it's in fast motion, but the meal prep truly felt just as fast (over several hours, no less)!
Watch him roll out the pie crust! And the way he formed the ice cream into quenelles -- how elegant is that!

I love Antonio's videos - your dinners look so fun!
ReplyDeleteFun, but mostly frantic. And quite alcoholic!
DeleteWatching that video made me dizzy--and hungry!
ReplyDeleteFunny -- we were both during the prep! Thanks for writing.
DeleteI know it's in fast motion, but the meal prep truly felt just as fast like to gamble it is known worldwide
ReplyDeleteThree cheers for time lapse. I've broadcast a couple recipes that way myself. Happy to have found your site through Smitten Kitchen
ReplyDeleteTV -- Thanks. Truly the dinner took sooo long to prepare (our poor guests were banished to the parlor during the prep, that it was quite refreshing to see it all finished in three minutes. Thanks much for writing. I'll check out your blog soon!
