"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This recipe comes from the Crock-Pot Recipe Collection cookbook. I prefer to put the cornstarch and water in a saucepan and mix in the cooking liquid to thicken it on the stove top. I then just put everything back into the slow cooker and leave it on Low until ready to serve.
