Spezzatino is the food magazine that really feeds people

As their slogan goes, "Spezzatino is the food magazine that really feeds people," and I'm proud to play a small part as more than just a subscriber. This month's issue is all about rice, and as you may recall, I've had some personal recipe success in the wild rice arena.

But it's not just about me. My best friend and writing partner is also found in this issue of Spezzatino; Galya (aka Galina Talkington) makes her debut appearance this month

Galya interviewed renowned Master Baker Danny Klecko about keeping the art of baking alive, feeding the community, and how his loaf of Wild Rice Sourdough may have ended the Cold War!

In addition, you will find that I have a little bit to say about wild rice, and wild rice tamales, once again. If you'd like to check out the recipe, you can download a PDF of it right here -- Spezzatino Wild Rice Tamales.
