insalata di rinforzo
'reinforcement salad'
It sounds just as funny in Italian, but it's a tradition around Naples for the Christmas Eve dinner, which is always meatless. So mamma 'reinforces' the salad with a lot of good things to keep you going: there's always lots of cauliflower, along with anchovies, pickles, peppers, capers and olives.
Also known as burdiglione.
