I've got some earlier LJ posts about the Italian foods I grew up with and still love. Shall I dig up links to them?

One of the Polish foods we had at home was kielbasa and sauerkraut. Why my mom cooked them in a pressure cooker and not in a frypan is beyond me. Both were already cooked; just heat and serve.

P.S. Ask athenawindsong about her trip to DiSalvo's Deli in Kettering.
