Notes
Note Fernet Branca is Italian bitters, available from select liquor stores. In editing Fergus Henderson's recipe for publication we strived to make only minimal changes to bring them into Gourmet Traveller style, preserving his voice as much as possible. This recipe is from the November 2006 issue of Australian Gourmet Traveller.
