In reply to Antoinette.

Sorry but I do not understand. Sandwich has the same meaning in Italian and English: Meat or whatever between two slices of bread…. So you will have to be more specific than that. In Italy we also have panini wich is basically the same thing. just made with fresh made bread instead of sliced bread.

Agreed 100% We will have to add Rigatoni alla Pajata to the article. Thanks for pointing that out

Where can I find that sandwich now. I haven’t had that in years. My father used to buy them at a store on 2 nd Ave in Manhattan. If anyone knows where I can find them now, I’d appreciate it.

Growing up in Brooklyn NY blocks from the pier’s where my grandfather & our Sicilian family came to kive & work, they brought with them many “recipes” my grandfather was a butcher in our family store. I grew up eating sweet breads, pigs skin, pigs feet, tripe, vasseda, octopus, snails from the ocean and the mountains. Today people don’t make or eat these foods anymore. I keep tradition and make all of them. Growing up Sicilian was a joy when it came to foods from Sicily.
