The grandmother , guardian of camarin ( old pantry , cool , dry place where the food is retained ) , before serving the Pitine at the table , brushing the mold and washed with water and vinegar ;

In those years , rarely consumed as such , were usually served chopped and cooked in broth polenta . That was the fact that Pitine were few and the winter was long, so a Pitina had enough for dinner for the whole family .
