Pappa Al Pomodoro
"From the long defunct Rockin' Robin Cafe in Oswego, NY. The owner/cook was pretty temperamental, but he made killer soups! I love the sage in this, it's a nice change from basil."

<p>This site has gotten so horribly bad over the past couple of years, I have stopped using it to manage my recipes and have gone over to using another one, which I have been forbidden to mention on Food.com. It's no secret that there are competitors; send me a message if you are in the same boat and would like to know. For now, I only frequent a few of the forums and that's it. The Titanic has sailed!</p>
