Coteghino

For those of you who are not Italian, it’s pronounced “gitta-GEEN” It is consumed by Genovese, Sicilians, and Florentine. You can find it in just about any Italian deli. This spicy lunch meat was invented in Italy. In Philadelphia, many use it to make a hoagie. It can be found in Italian subs in LA. It is used in Italian heroes in New York any day. From what part of the pig is it made, do you suppose? To be honest with you, it comes from the pig’s nose.
