Italy and US and the nuclear agreement

2009-10-02T09:38:00.000+02:00

Italy and the United States have signed last Tuesday September the 29th a five-year agreement to cooperate in the field of nuclear energy.

This agreement focuses on the development of 12 new-generation nuclear power plants in Italy and the two powers will work together in the fields of research and development, treatment and storage of nuclear waste, security and efficiency.

Italy abandoned nuclear power in 1987 after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster and as all the other leading western powers use and produce nuclear power the Italian parliament has decided to reconsider this option and maybe cover 25% of its energy needs for the future.

This agreement will involve the exchange of information, personnel and materials between Italy and the US.

“Autumn flavours”, food festivals in Italy: HONEY FESTIVALS

2009-10-01T11:23:00.002+02:00

7:00PM. Aperitivo time in Italy!

2009-09-30T09:40:00.001+02:00

A well consolidated tradition by many Italians is meeting half an hour before the evening meal to enjoy together an “aperitivo”. The habit of the evening aperitivo has become very popular in recent years but it is a practice that was common during the Romans. The word Aperitivo comes from the Latin “aperire” that means to open, to begin. In fact its purpose is to open your stomach and tickle your appetite.

Aperitivo usually starts at 7:00pm and goes on until 8:30pm. You can choose among a vast range of alcoholic or non-alcoholic drinks. Every region or city has its own special one and according to the location a similar cocktail can just change the name.

The most popular alcoholic ones are Pirlo (common in Brescia, Lombardy and made with sparkling white wine, Campari or Aperol and soda water), Spritz from Veneto is made with white wine and sparkling water), Rossini (named after the famous classical composer: mashed strawberries and Prosecco sparkling wine or Champagne). Even sparkling or dry white wines are usually served during the aperitivo and the most popular one is Prosecco.

Let us not forget the famous Bellini, created by a barman, at the Harry's Bar in Venice, in 1948.
Non-alcoholic aperitif cocktails are usually a mixture of fruit juice and chopped fruit. They can easily become alcoholic aperitifs adding some gin or vodka. You can also buy already made non-alcoholic soft drinks such as Crodino (most popular - created in Piedmont), San Bittèr made by the San Pellegrino Co. (Bergamo, Lombardy).

Aperitivo is always served with something to much on such as chips, peanuts, cubes of pizza, olives, pickles etc.
In recent years it has become a common practice to prepare a small buffet with cold pasta, pizza, canapés, sandwiches, rice and seafood salads, etc.
These aperitifs are really appreciated among youngsters that can have an aperitif and have dinner paying the aperitif just a little bit more.

CAPERS: fruit from the rocks

2009-08-17T17:30:00.003+02:00

Have you ever seen such a beauty? This is the shot of a caper flower taken on a rock on Tremiti islands, Apulia- Italy.

It is quite easy to find a bunch of capers on Italian rocky islands as the Mediterranean sun and waters create the perfect conditions for this plant to grow.

Wild capers smell is so intense and strong that you think you will hardly manage to eat them, while the taste as first is almost disappointing.
To pick capers you don’t need any particular tool a part from a plastic bag. Be careful as they grow on rocks, slippery and leaning.

Pick the small gems leaving 5 mm of its steam. The medium size are the best ones as if they are big and soft at the touch it means that it’s flower is ready to blossom and not good anymore to be eaten. Once at home you don’t need to wash them; a few grains of coarse salt will be enough to disinfect them. So pour a tablespoon of salt in a mug full of capers and leave them a couple of days uncovered.
Mix them gently twice a day; capers will leave their humour for 2 or 3 days and then salt dry them up.

After that transfer them in a jar and leave in a dry place for at least one month. It is up to you add some more salt. They will be ready to be eaten after a few months. You will have to rinse them well before eating them. Another great option is to fill your capers jar with extravirgin olive oil. They will preserve for months.. at least until your next vacation to Tremiti islands!

What is real Italian food after all? – Some good suggestions for Americans loving food “Italian-style”

2009-09-24T17:15:00.003+02:00

In many big American centres such as NY, Washington, Los Angeles or Chicago there are just a few Italian restaurants that really worthy to be called Italian. In my opinion the great majority of them are not Italian at all but run by people who have never been in Italy before!

Italian pizza margherita for example is not a round piece of greasy bread topped with red-purple sauce and lot of different kind of cheeses. Italian-American food is loaded with too many toppings, sauces, a strange kind of cheese called parmesan and many “typical Italian dishes” that can be found in America are not even mentioned in any Italian cookery book.

As for example many Americans imagine the most famous plate of pasta as spaghetti with meat ball sauce.

But unfortunately no ones eat spaghetti with meat ball sauce! Of course there are many meat recipes that require laborious and hours long preparation (meat sauce in Italian is called ragù) but there are so many different pasta recipes that the meat ones are not even the most famous.

Have you ever heard about spaghetti alla carbonara or spaghetti alla chitarra? Every single region and city in Italy has its own pasta recipes. And they are really proud of them! Bucatini all’amatriciana (Latium); Pizzoccheri from Valtellina (Lonbardy), Trofie with pesto (Liguria), Orecchiette with turnip tops (Apulia), Lasagne alla bolognese and tortellini (Emilia-Romagna), Spaghetti mari e monti (Marches), and so on. To not mention the amazing number of forms, shapes and sizes of pasta that are suitable for hundreds of different of toppings and recipes.

This is the strength of Italian cuisine! Healthy food with tasty and different toppings. And remember… Italian cuisine is not just pasta and pizza!

Is summer over in Italy?

2009-09-14T12:05:00.001+02:00

After a warm and sunny Sunday Northern Italian people woke up this morning with a wet and cold surprise. An unceasing rain that continued all the night long has considerably lowered the temperature. Jumpers and shoes have replaced short sleeves and sandals, while sunglasses have been replaced by umbrellas. In the South temperatures are still mild and pleasant. Here the medium temperature during the day will be around 23–25°C (73-77°F) for the next few days so, if you are planning a vacation in Southern Italy don’t worry and enjoy the last sunny days.

If you are planning to visit the north like Venice, Milan, Cinque Terre, weather is rather critical and I suggest you a medium season jacket, and a few jumpers. Don’t leave home all your summer stuff. If sun comes out it will be incredibly hot. The weather in Italy could be like this for another month so be prepared and enjoy your staying!
