The Storm Theme of Marriage. We're often taught that cheating is wrong â on a test, in a marriage, whatever. We think of it as being dishonest, or as a kind of sin. The Storm is not so black and white, though. Yes, Calixta and AlcÃ©e cheat on their spouses by having an affair and act as if nothing happened, but afterwards they seem to be kinder and sweeter to their spouses.
The Giant Puffball (Langermannia gigantea; see photos above) is one of North America's best-known edible wild mushrooms, particularly among farmers and other country folk. But there are several good puffball species; read on!liced and simply fried with a little garlic and black pepper, I think puffballs' flavor is wonderful. Mycochefs have a field day with them; Puffball Parmesan is an especially popular recipe. Puffballs are different than most mushrooms in that they lack gills or any other exterior spore-producing structures.
Combine beef, veal, and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Blend bread crumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape if rolled into meatballs. (I usually use about 1 1/4 cups of water). Shape into meatballs. Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. When the meatball is very brown and slightly crisp remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. (If your mixture is too wet, cover the meatballs while they are cooking so that they hold their shape better.)
