Not Great British Food - Great Made-in-America Italian Food.
My Italian-American family has these at Christmas every year. They’re probably the thing I miss most at Christmas (aside from my family of course). These are apparently an Italian finger-food but I’m not sure how authentic the recipe is. It’s one of my favourite things ever though. Mom makes tons of these ahead of time, freezes them and reheats on Christmas Eve.
We always used a homemade Italian sausage from one of the numerous family-owned supermarkets in Old Forge, Pa – Rossi’s on Main St at the top of Taroli St was the usual. Italian sausage is a little crumblier than the Taste The Difference types you get in Sainsbury’s, but that’s probably more do do with the hand-mincing than by actual design. If I’m really stuck I just get a good quality plain pork sausage and season the meat with fennel seeds, garlic, oregano, crushed chili flakes and black pepper.
