This is a recipe from the Catania area of Italy and goes way back in time. Long before any real health considera- tions with fat and cholesterol. The recipe as written is from an original, however, to make it a bit more updated, and less fat laden, fry the bacon fully, then drain most of the fat. Once the fat is drained, continue with the remainder of the recipe.
