ghiandole

/gyahn-DOH-leh/
[Italian]

Glands, often of pork. To be honest, I am not sure what a "gland" is in an animal. I thought this might be a euphemism for testicles, but the Italians are not normally nervous about naming the parts of animals. I suspect that it is when you have, perhaps, a mixture of sweetbreads, testicles and so on and the dish is given the overall heading of "ghiandole".
