Giardiniera which means, "Italian Picked Vegetables." It's a delicious condiment that's spicy, sweet, salty and tangy all at the same time. It's great on Chicago Italian Beef Sandwiches, Philly Cheese Steaks, Sausage Sandwiches, Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, French Dips, eggs and most pizzas and pastas. Served hot or cold with additional vinager to the side. Or, just eat it straight out of the jar! Excellent work students! Delicious!
