The Gaurdian - A recipe for tagliatelle with sardines and prosciutto has proved a little too spicy for Penguin Australia, after a misprint suggesting that the dish required “salt and freshly ground black people” has left the publisher reaching for the pulping machine, rather than the pepper grinder. It’s a one-word slip that only came to light after a member of the public got in touch, and which has sent all 7,000 copies of The Pasta Bible at Penguin’s warehouse to be destroyed, an exercise which head of publishing, Robert Sessions, told the Sydney Morning Herald would cost $ 20,000.
That is just disgusting. I mean what kind of cookbook is this. Sardines in tagliatelle? Thats just gross. I’ll stick to the recipe for Cream of Sum Yung Gui.
