OOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPSSSSSSSSSss it is PITA PIATA
We all would like to have or we won't be looking at the message.
Thanks.

Hello all.

I just had Pita Piata for the first time this weekend. A friend's mother came for a visit from West Virginia and brought some. It turns out that this is a speciality of a small village in Calabria and there were a lot of people from that village who came to West Virginia to work in the coal mines years ago. It is not much known elsewhere, even in Calabria.

It is actually called by another name - Pitta 'mpigliata.

Here are a couple of links to get you started:

Hj�s Italian Sausage- Peppers � Onion- Mushrooms Sandwich 1970

I created this in the 1970�s in Pennsyvanlia while working at an establishment. Kept me busy just cooking these.

Italian Sausage or sweet sausage
Italian Buns.. crusty like hogie buns.
Saut�: Onions . .sliced in circles . .not real thick or just slice . . but not diced
Bell Peppers . . red and green . . if you have. both. . . slice like the onions
Mushrooms . . .sliced fairly thin

Do this on a grill or in a large cast iron skillet Had a huge grill to do these on.

Grill sausage till cooked well � I slit almost in half - cook until nice � brown both sides

When sausage is about � done on same grill or large skillet - start sauteing onions- peppers � mushrooms. Cooking with juices from the sausage seasoned with garlic powder- salt- pepper � ACCENT as you would season any food ..turn � season again

When about 2-3 minutes from being all done put the Italian crusty hogie long buns over the top to steam �so buns are warm � little soft with flavors steaming in

Take buns off put yellow mustard- catsup on both sides of hogie � mayo on one side

Add the add all the above from the skillet

This is wonderful with a beer and side of chips or a bowl of soup.

Now- smoother with lots of onions-peppers- and some mushrooms

If you like add a slice of swiss cheese over the sausage till it melts before serving.
Serve with a half of 1 huge thin sliced kolsher pickle on the side
