What do Italy, Chicago, and New Orleans have in common? They love their Giardiniera!
Originating in Italy, these pickled vegetables were introduced to Chicago in the late 19th century by Italian immigrants and they took their place as arguably the city's most popular condiment. It's used on practically everything! Giardiniera is just what you need to bring your hot dogs, burgers, sandwiches, nachos, antipasto platters and pasta salads to life. In Chicago you'll even commonly find it served on pizzas, and of course no Italian beef sandwich is complete without it!
Have you been to New Orleans? Giardiniera is also the magical ingredient in those mouthwatering muffuletta sandwiches.
In short, giardiniera is the ultimate pickled vegetable relish and you'll find yourself reaching for it again and again!
