Chicken Paprikash

In the spirit of #draculadaily, here's a translated-by-me recipe for chicken paprikash from an old Serbian cookbook that used to belong to my great-grandmother. Other than adding a few editorial comments and reformatting it to make it easier on modern readers, I haven't changed the text much. Photo of original recipe below the translated text.

Chicken Paprikash with Nokledes

Ingredients:

For the paprikash:

1 whole chicken (recipe starts by assuming you will pluck your own!)

0.5 kg yellow onion (about one large one)

1 tablespoon butter (can substitute other cooking oil, but I recommend using a saturated fat)

1 tsp paprika*

1 red bell pepper OR 1 long, green pepper

4-5 roma tomatoes

Parsley

Black pepper

For the nokledes:

2 egg yolks

1 knob butter

"Snow of two egg whites" I think this means egg whites beaten to stiff peaks

Flour (no quantity specified, typical grandma stuff)

Pluck and clean chicken, if not done already, and cut into pieces. Peel onion and slice into thin ribs. Place in pot (I recommend a large dutch oven) one tablespoon of butter/oil and heat over medium-high heat. When butter/oil is hot, add sliced onion and salt immediately, then fry until completely soft. Add on top one tsp* paprika, bell pepper or long green pepper with the chicken meat, and fry with onion until onion is completely fried (nice and brown). Pour in enough water to cover meat. Add into the paprikash 4-5 chopped tomatoes, finely chopped parsley, a little black pepper, and salt as needed. Lower the heat and simmer the paprikash on a low flame until nearly all the water reduces, all while stirring frequently to avoid burning. When it is ready, it must have enough juice. Serve the paprikash with nokledes that are made in the following way:

Mix together all ingredients listed until well-beaten. Fill a pot with water, salt it, then bring to a boil. Wet a spoon in the boiling water and use it to take out little balls of dough and add them to the boiling water. Remove nokledes when cooked, and finish by frying in butter (you can also just use store-bought...)

Personal note: the original recipe calls for "one blade" of paprika, which my dad says is equivalent to one teaspoon. I have no idea what it means, so if anyone knows please share in the comments!

Unfortunately the bit about the nokledes got cut off, so if anyone wants the rest let me know and I'll get my dad to photograph the rest.

Honestly it seems like a fight to even have Billy's Romani heritage mentioned in the comics, even though he seems like the type to be really eager to learn about his cultural heritage. And it'd be a bonding activity that doesn't exclude Tommy, the way that something magically inclined most likely would.

On one hand, Pietro and Wanda being drawn with darker skin is a relatively recent development that still seems to be facing some pushback. On the other, I'd expect the lack of whitewashing to naturally apply to Luna, Billy, and Tommy as well? Even in the case of retro-reincarnation; if they're written and drawn as taking entirely after Wanda's family physically, instead of the Kaplans or Shepherds- that's what Heinberg and Cheung intended, it's how Magneto identified them as Wanda's kids, and everyone else has followed that trend- then I don't understand some people's logic behind that applying to everything EXCEPT skin tone.

To my understanding, making this sort of change to a character's official design requires a degree of editorial authority. Dauterman, Orlando, et al were able to do that for Wanda and Pietro because they had more direct control over them as title characters. They're making Speed or Wiccan comics, so they don't get to do official design sheets for Billy and Tommy. I'm sure that there were many other, more complicated conversations happening behind the scene, but I think that's the basic gist.

Having said that, there's really no reason they couldn't give Billy and Tommy darker skin, or just make them look more like Wanda, in Scarlet Witch, even if it wouldn't be reflected in other books. Artists get away with making arbitrary coloring choices all the time-- usually for the worse, but sometimes for the better. So, I think that they are making this visual distinction on purpose, and there's a couple reasons why that might be happening. A lot of people do arrive at the conclusion that Billy and Tommy should look more mixed, for lack of a better term, than Wanda because of their unconventional parentage. I don't love it, especially not when it means making them super pale, but I do understand the logic.

It's also completely possible that Orlando doesn't think or hasn't realized that Billy and Tommy are Romani, or have Roma heritage. Or perhaps he is just uncertain of what the best, most appropriate course to take, because it's an odd situation. This is why, even if he's not writing stories specifically about Wanda's race and culture, he'd benefit from a consultant or sensitivity reader.

I'd care a lot less about what these characters looked like, if I felt like the nuances of their heritage were authentically represented. I care about Wanda and Pietro being brown because there isn't enough inclusive representations of brown Roma, and because there is a gap in readers' understanding that Roma are a racial minority, so seeing us as people of color is necessary. If people had better understanding, or if there was a more inclusive range of characters, it wouldn't matter. Similarly, I want Billy and Tommy to look like Wanda because for some reason "Billy and Tommy are Wanda's kids" does not translate to "Billy and Tommy are Romani" in people's minds. If that was already a given, it would matter less.

Anyways, I've pointed this out before, but it does seem as if Dauterman may have changed Billy and Tommy's skin tone on his most recent covers. Its really hard to tell because of the lighting, but compared to last years #6, I feel like the base color here is closer to Wanda and Pietro's shade range.

Again, full aware that this is a stretch, but if you use Lorna as an example of how fair skin reflects in this sort of dramatic lighting, the tones used on Billy and Tommy are consistently deeper and warmer. I'm not making any assumptions, it's just something I noticed and it's made me very curious to see what the interiors will look like for SW #7.

Come erravamo - 7

La volontà del capitalista consiste certamente nel prendere quanto più è possibile. Ciò che noi dobbiamo fare non è di parlare della sua volontà, ma di indagare la sua forza, i limiti di questa forza e il carattere di questi limiti.

Copertina: Per quanto abbia cercato, nella mio elettrolibro non ho trovato riferimenti all'immagine di copertina. Mi sembra strano che non abbiano attribuito il disegno con una chiara indicazione di chi fece quel lavoro… Rimedio io, almeno per questo post: l'immagine è stata tratta dal fumetto Bringing Up Father (Alcibaldo e Petronilla), disegnato a partire del 1913 dallo statunitense George McManus.
