What is the quantity of lemon juice used? Also any guidance on how thick the tenderloin slices would be.
This looks like the meat would be well done – what is the recipe’s degree of doneness (med, med rare, etc.) goal?

First, love your show, watching for 20 years, purchased your new cookbook Family Classics, as all your books of yours were destroyed by hurracaine Sandy, I looked at the recipe in the book, it says to turn the meat twice for 15 min. Is this a misprint?

Everytime I watch Mary Ann cooking many of the Neopolitan Favorites, I feel as if it is a hug from my Nonna. Thank you.

I love, love, Love you Maryanne. Have been watching you for at least 20 years. I am Neopolitan and Abruzzi. When you are cooking your food jumps off the TV into my mouth. I can just taste it by looking at it. Thank you for so many of your wonderful recipes and stories. I saw you many, many years ago at a food “convention”in northern NJ where you signed a wonderful cookbook for me and my sorella and my beautiful Momma. I will cherish it forever and that wonderful day I spent with Sister Anna, and my beautiful Momma, Raphaela. Thank you and God Bless you.

i found this to be Delicious. I added the fresh parley just before I laid the steak.

Most of my Italian family, aunts and uncles, are all gone now. Watching your show brings back memories of our Sunday dinners where everyone brought their specialties, Ravioli, gnocchi, lasagna, cookies and of course, homemade wine. Thank you Marianne for the recipes and memories.
