VARIATIONS:
SPAGHETTI AND CHICKEN MEATBALLS
If you want to trim some fat from this recipe, ground chicken is a decent alternative to ground beef and pork. We found that meatballs made from chicken are a tad soft, so they must be refrigerated for an hour before being fried to keep them from sticking to the pan or falling apart.
Follow recipe for Spaghetti and Meatballs, replacing ground meat with 1 pound ground chicken. After shaping meatballs in step 2, place on platter, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Proceed as directed.
The shaped meatballs can be covered with plastic wrap and refrigerated for several hours ahead of serving time, if you like. Fry the meatballs and make the sauce at the last minute.
1. For the meatballs: Combine bread and buttermilk in small bowl and let stand, mashing occasionally with fork, until smooth paste forms, about 10 minutes.
2. Place ground meat, cheese, parsley, egg yolk, garlic, salt, and pepper to taste in medium bowl. Add bread-milk mixture and combine until evenly mixed. Shape 3 tablespoons of mixture into 1 1/2-inch-round meatball. (When forming meatballs use a light touch. If you compact the meatballs too much, they can become dense and hard.) You should be able to form about 14 meatballs.
3. Pour vegetable oil into 10- or 11-inch sauté pan to depth of 1/4 inch. Turn flame to medium-high. After several minutes, test oil with edge of meatball. When oil sizzles, add meatballs in single layer. Fry, turning several times, until nicely browned on all sides, about 10 minutes (see illustration below). Regulate heat as needed to keep oil sizzling but not smoking. Transfer browned meatballs to plate lined with paper towels and set aside.
4. Bring 4 quarts water to a boil in large pot for pasta.
5. For the sauce: Meanwhile, discard oil in pan but leave behind any browned bits. Add olive oil for tomato sauce along with garlic and sauté over medium heat, scraping up browned bits, just until garlic is golden, about 30 seconds. Add tomatoes, bring to boil, and simmer gently until sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Stir in basil and salt and pepper to taste. Add meatballs and simmer, turning them occasionally, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Keep warm over low flame.
6. Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon salt and pasta to boiling water. Cook until al dente, drain, and return to pot. Ladle several large spoonfuls of sauce (without meatballs) over spaghetti and toss until noodles are well coated. Divide pasta among individual bowls and top each with a little more tomato sauce and 2 or 3 meatballs. Serve immediately with grated cheese passed separately.

Cherry-Apple Pie
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons margarine or butter
3 tablespoons shortening
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
5 to 6 tablespoons ice water
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/4 cup apple juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
6 cups thinly sliced peeled baking apples
1 teaspoon vanilla
Glaze (optional)
1 egg white, well beaten
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1. Combine flour, 2 tablespoons sugar and salt in large bowl. Cut in margarine and shortening with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add vinegar and 4 tablespoons water, stirring with fork. Add additional ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until mixture forms soft dough. Divide dough into thirds. Shape 1 piece into disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Combine remaining 2 pieces dough, forming larger disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 375°F. In small microwavable bowl, combine cherries and apple juice; microwave on HIGH 1-1/2 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes to plump cherries. In large bowl, combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon; mix well. Stir in apples and vanilla.
3. Coat 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray. Roll larger disc of dough to 1/8-inch thickness on lightly floured surface. Cut into 12-inch circle. Transfer pastry to prepared pie plate. Spoon apple mixture into pastry. Roll smaller disc of dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut dough into 1/2-inch-strips. Place strips over filling and weave into lattice design. Trim ends of lattice strips; fold edge of lower crust over ends of lattice strips. Seal and flute edge.
4. For glaze, brush pastry with egg white; sprinkle with combined sugar and cinnamon, if desired. Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until apples are tender and crust is golden brown. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
