Since it's a simple and humble type of salad, it does seem to reflect St. Joseph a bit, don't you think?<BR/><BR/>There are all sorts of categories of Liturgical Cooking. There are foods that have significance to a saint because the cuisine is from where he was born or lived or buried; a favorite food of a saint while he was living; a food derived from something that occurred in a saint's life; or just food named for the saint or someone named Joseph (aka Sloppy Joes). <BR/><BR/>I know Suzanne Fowler in one of her cookbooks just names different foods for the saints, because they are served on their feast days. And foods like "St. Joseph Fritters" or "St. Joseph Cream Puffs" have no significance except that they are served on his day -- a traditional Italian festival food. <BR/><BR/>Finally, there are food like the aforementioned "Sloppy Joes" or "Eggs Benedict" that we can have fun serving on the saint's day because of the name, but again, no significance except that we are honoring the saint.Jennifer Gregory Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03677077951743177153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7864168283064539221.post-27591949043004329292009-03-18T23:25:00.000-07:002009-03-18T23:25:00.000-07:00+JMJ+I confess I'm also a bit disappointed in Brot...+JMJ+<BR/><BR/>I confess I'm also a bit disappointed in Brother Victor-Antoine's explanation. I understand naming recipes after saints in order to honour them, but I would have liked to know the reason <I>this</I> salad was named after St. Joseph--and not, say, one with macaroni and tuna. (Just an example!) Is there something especially Josephite about spinach, radicchio, etc?Enbrethilielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03414765854670926854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7864168283064539221.post-34001632553310181612009-03-18T09:21:00.000-07:002009-03-18T09:21:00.000-07:00I like the monk's explanation!
