I have a college education, am part Italian, come from an upper middle class white family and don't have a clue what the frick these things are.
Liberals have an uncanny ability to make themselves feel intelligent and cultured by going to these places with fancy names for food or other items. I bet the chicken steak quesadilla covered in queso cheese dip taste better than that shite too.
I noticed in San Francisco every common item had the word smart in front of it. For example my hotel had a "smartfridge" stocked with "smart water". Nothing special about it, just a mini fridge with bottled water. But brilliant marketing toward the liberal general smugness and self importance

capicollo
it's very similar to prosciutto except it's taken from the neck of the hog and then rolled like pancetta and then cured and air dried where as prosciutto is taken from the ham.
quote:
soppressata
is a sausage like salami it's every thing that's not fit to be put into something else. they start by boiling the pigs head and then striping it of all potential meat...cheeks, jowls, grind it put it in a casing and cure it.
quote:
striata baguette
it literally means striated baguette and it's not really a thing all proper baguettes are strait. they're using it to mean stretched but all baguettes would be stretched when formed as opposed to a boule which is round. the restaurant just added striata to be pretentious.
