This recipe has been handed down over several generations. I do not know the actual origin, whether it originated in Sicily, where my Great-Grandfather was born, or whether it was concocted on the family’s kitchen stove in New Orleans. I can only attest that it has been, and continues to be, a special occasion whenever it is prepared and served to family and honored guests.
Cook/prep time: 3-4 hours Serves: 6-8 guests
