Steps:
- In a bowl, cover the bread with milk. When it's completely soaked, remove the bread and squeeze it with your hands to remove the excess milk.
- In the mortar, add the garlic, pine nuts, and a little coarse sea salt. Start crushing the ingredients with the pestle. You will have to make circular and decisive movements, continuing to grind until the pine nuts are crushed.
- Next add the walnuts. You can choose whether to blanch the walnuts to remove the film and then let them dry, or use them directly. Continue to grind for two or three minutes until you get a homogeneous paste.
- Now add the extra-virgin olive oil, the Parmigiano-Reggiano, the drained breadcrumbs, and the chopped marjoram leaves; mix well with a spoon until the ingredients form a creamy sauce.
- Place the bread in a bowl and cover it with milk. Once it's completely soaked, remove the bread and squeeze it to remove the excess milk.
- Add the bread to the blender along with the nuts, garlic, marjoram, Parmigiano-Reggiano, and a pinch or two of salt. Blend until a smooth paste forms.
- Add the olive oil and continue blending to obtain a thick, creamy sauce.

HOT FUDGE SAUCE
This recipe for a classic hot fudge sauce came to The Times in 2004, from Kay Rentschler. "A well-constructed homemade hot fudge sauce moves forward with dark smoky accents and arrives with plenty of chew," she wrote. Here, bittersweet chocolate and high-fat Dutch process cocoa bring that smokiness, while heavy cream, butter and sugar mellow it out. It's a perfect contrast to the milky sweetness of a sundae loaded with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.

CREAMY RICH WALNUT FUDGE
Usually when you cook sugar to the softball stage you want it to stay nice and pliable and clear. But in the case of fudge you actually want to cook it to softball for the chewy-ness, and then agitate it by mixing, which starts re-inverting it back to crystalline form. It should be in very tiny crystals.

Steps:
- In a saucepan heat the chocolate and milk on low, stirring until it's melted. Add the sugar, corn syrup and salt and heat to the softball stage (236 degrees F).
- Add the butter and pour off into a mixer bowl to cool. Add the vanilla and beat with a paddle until it starts to lighten; then quickly add the nuts. Continue beating on low until it loses its gloss and thickens. Pour into a greased 9 by 9-inch pan and spread evenly. Let cool then cut into 1-inch cubes.
BUTTERY WALNUT FUDGE
I love fudge, but sometimes I just don't want all that chocolate....don't tell anyone I said that!!!! This is a great fudge, minus the chocolate. I found this recipe in TOH and did a make over on it to suit my taste. The original recipe calls for pecans, but we prefer walnuts in our fudge.
