Giardiniera are spicy pickled vegetables; the heat varies depending on the amount of hot peppers in the product.
5 stars all the way for this wonderful recipe!!! my whole family loved them!!
I also added a little cheese to my sandwiches (mozarella). Delicous sandwich, however, I don't feel that a whole can of beef broth was necessary.
Made this last night. I added one piece of pepper jack cheese to each sandwich and some jalapenos in the gardineria. Both my husband and I thought it was excellent! Easy to make, too. YUM!
This was good, but next time would make modifications such as adding cheese, some horseradish and maybe some pepperocinis. I didn't really care for the giardiniera. It was very quick and easy to make and given the right circumstance I would serve it to guests. Served with potato chips.
This is a long time family favorite. I chop up the pickled veggies so they stay on the sandwich better. I usually serve it with a fruit salad. I would give it 5 stars for flavor and ease.
Loved this recipe. Husband made sure to let me know it's ok to make this again! Easy, quick and flavorful. I used another kind of pickled veggie since the one this recipe asks for was over 5 bucks at the grocery store. Also threw in some onions with the peppers.
I make a variation of this recipe with a chuck roast, 2 jars of gardeniera - with juices ( 1 mild 1 spicy), a can of consumme, and a drained jar of spicy cherry peppers. I sear the roast, then pop into the crock with all the other ingredients, and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours. Drain the au jus, and put the veggies on the side. Usually, I try to make this a day ahead and de-fat the jus and reheat with the meat. Serve like a french dip with shredded beef on the bread with veggies and au jus. YUMMY!
