The Cotechino is an Italian large pork sausage requiring slow cooking; usually it is simmered at low heat for several hours. Its name comes from cotica, but it may take different names depending on its various locations of production.

The cotechino is an Italian large pork sausage requiring slow cooking; usually it is simmered at low heat for several hours. Its name comes from cotica (rind), but it may take different names depending on its various locations of production. According to tradition, it is served with lentils on New Year's Eve, because lentils—due to their shape—are 'credited' with bringing money in the coming year.

It is prepared by filling the natural casing with rind, pork meat (usually of secondary preference), and fat mixed with salt and spices; in industrial production, nitrites and nitrates are added as preservatives. Some similar sausages exist in the Italian cooking tradition, for example musetto and zampone which are made with different meat and parts of the pig, musetto being made with meat taken from the pig's muzzle and zampone being held together by the pig's rear leg skin.

The GODFATHER Story

The Corleone family, one of the Five Families of the New York Mafia, fights the other four families in a brutal war in the years after World War II. After Don Vito Corleone is shot by men working for drug kingpin Virgil "The Turk" Sollozzo, Corleone's two sons, Santino (Sonny) and Michael, must run the family business with the help of consigliere Tom Hagen and the family's two trusted caporegimes, Peter Clemenza and Salvatore Tessio. When Michael murders Sollozzo and his bodyguard, corrupt NYPD Captain Mark McCluskey, while meeting with them in a restaurant, the conflict escalates into a full-scale war which results in Sonny's murder. Michael must return from hiding in Sicily to assume control of the family as the new Don.

Under his retired father's tutelage, Michael orchestrates a plan to exact revenge, while relocating the Corleone family's power base to Las Vegas in order to further his goal of legitimizing the family and getting them out of organized crime. This encompasses the murder of all of the Corleone family's enemies, including Michael's brother-in-law Carlo Rizzi, who played a part in Sonny's murder. After selling all of the family's remaining businesses in New York, the Corleones permanently move to Las Vegas.

MARIO PUZO






Mario Puzo




The GODFATHER

Mario Puzo’s classic saga of an American crime family that became a global phenomenonnominated as one of America’s best-loved novels by PBS’s The Great American Read.

With its brilliant and brutal portrayal of the Corleone family, The Godfather burned its way into our national consciousness. This unforgettable saga of crime and corruption, passion and loyalty continues to stand the test of time, as the definitive novel of the Mafia underworld.

A #1 New York Times bestseller in 1969, Mario Puzo’s epic was turned into the incomparable film of the same name, directed by Francis Ford Coppola, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture. It is the original classic that has been often imitated, but never matched. A tale of family and society, law and order, obedience and rebellion, it reveals the dark passions of human nature played out against a backdrop of the American dream.

Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing Story History

 




Phillip Solommi

WISHBONE SALAD DRESSING



Next time you use or see a bottle of that American classic bottle Salad Dressing, WISHBONE ITALIAN DRESSING you will have something that is a creation out of the ITALIAN ENCLAVES. While Wishbone is decidedly American Mainstream it was created by a family that immigrated from Sicily to Cleveland, Ohio. Lena Sollomi and her family used this vinaigrette in their home, recipe said to have come from their town in Sicily. Sicilian cuisine is known for these types of marinades and dressing, like the famous Salmoriglio. Lena's son Philip after a stint in the Army landed in the Kansas City area. Also, an Italian enclave. He opened various restaurants and one of them was the WISHBONE Restaurant.

One of his dishes was pairing Fried Chicken with this Salad Dressing his mother used to make. The dressing was used on chicken and also on salads and it became so popular in the restaurant he started to make huge quantities of it and sell it from the restaurant. Around the beginning of the 1950's the Salad dressing sales were making so much money for the family they sold the restaurant and began to mass produce it as the dressing we know today. Subsequently Sollomi sold the business to a huge corporation for millions. He realized the American dream that his parents immigrated from Sicily to America imagined for their children. Whether you like or dislike the bottled dressing, that's not the real story here. The real story is how our immigrant ancestors came to the USA in search of a better life for their families and how they achieved their successes, big and small.
