Christ with St Joseph in his workshop by Sir John Everett Millais |
Italians mark his feast day with a rather special pastry from Sicily, known as a St Joseph's cake, but more often referred to as Zeppoles. These cakes are a cross between a cream puff and donut and are utterly delicious. Termini Bros at the Reading Terminal Market has them on sale for most of the month of March. If you're feeling adventurous and fancy making your own, we found this recipe for Zeppoles online. (Thanks to http://www.cook-italian.com/)
To round out an Italian feast honoring St. Joseph--or just because--hit By George in the Market. They offer a staggering array of prepared Italian dishes and fresh pasta cut to order.
Happy St. Joseph's Day!
