I left for Italy for a month, October/November to study Italian and do research on the Zampone dating back to the 15 century in Modena. Before I left I pitched the article to Darra Goldstein editor Gastronomica. She said, “Do it!” I did but it took me five months! I even stuffed the pigs trotter and made cotechino (made with the same meat stuffing). This completed my story. It is being published in the November issue.
