Mozzarella en Carozza


Pamela and I had been wanting to try an Italian food called mozzarella en carozza, so yesterday we got the ingredients and made some. It’s like a grilled cheese that went through an Italian testosterone machine: Fresh mozzarella is sandwiched by two pieces of bread soaked in egg (and maybe milk) like French toast, and the whole thing is deep fried. It was ridiculous, needless to say. It gives my mouth separation anxiety to see these photographs. The bread was so crispy it was bubbly, and each bite would send strings of mozzarella out like spider webs.
