He used to buy (something), a sausage of sorts, and we would hang it up in our garage for ???. Can you help? I believe the result of the drying was called Supersod. I want to make it again so much. What type of sausage do I buy to hang to dry? We also used to purchase balls of Provolone, cut a plug in the top, fill hole with olive oil, replug, and turn and turn and turn.... for how long???? If you do not repeat making these treats, and you never wrote them down, how quickly you forget. Can anyone help me? My husband, in his younger years, worked across the street from an Italian Deli.

As my children go to college (and one graduating), they are just figuring out that they might have to cook some of their favorite meals! And you father is correct - "no work, no eat." And one day you shall pass on this knowledge. I love this on so many levels.
