"The tradition of Italian cooking is that of the matriarch. This is the cooking of grandma. She didn't waste time thinking too much about the celery. She got the best celery she could and then she dealt with it."--Mario Batali

Personal Notes:
These buns are soft and delicious. I have no idea where Mom got the recipe, but she used to make them and freeze in bags of 1 dozen, to use when company came for dinner. Kandace used to eat at half a dozen buns when they came out of the oven. They freeze very well and the recipe can easily be doubled.
