Dinner Tonight: Pisto Manchego (Spanish Ratatouille)
The recipe is missing a step to roast the garlic - otherwise it works well!

Listen Up my fellow Cooks/Contestants. Serious Eats say they reserve the right to alter any rules of any contest at any time. This means when the rule states S.Eats will pick the winner at random; anyone can make any kind of off the kitchen wall comment.It won't matter; it's a random pick. S.Eats should have the sources involved in the promotion take a peek at some of the clever answers that come across their world wide website.So all of you bright,intelligent,shrewd,quick,talented,expert,gifted and smart wordsmiths understand how the contest is played. Contact S.Eats at ATseriouseats.com and let"s alter the random pick rule. Happy Holiday and dried basil is my ingredient.

Pennyroyal is from the mint genus and has a very strong spearmint smell. Nepitella, by contrast, is like a minty oregano and tastes amazing with shrimp.
My favorite Italian ingredient is rosemary. I use it in almost every Italian dish I make - I even use the plant's thickest stalks as skewers for roasting shrimp, chicken, beef, and/or potatoes on the barbecue. Next to oregano (or nepitella when I can find it), rosemary is by far my favorite.

Mozzarela cheese is it - pizza, lasagna, etc.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a key ingredient in any Italian dish. But then what is Italian without the freshest Garlic available. Oh...and capers. Must have capers. And a little touch of heaven to finish whatever concoction makes it to the dinner table would have to be parmigiano reggiano. No wonder my family loves me. I love them with really serious eats.

Fresh Italian parsley... as the saying goes, she's like parsley--you find her in every sauce.

Exclusively Italian? I'll remove from that the tempting category of fresh produce and say an excellent aged aceto basalmico.

pasta..what else??

It has to be extra virgin olive oil!

Parmigiano cheese, definitely. There's no substitute here for the flavor.
