Curcùci
''Frittole di maiale'' (in Calabrian dialect ''frittuli'', rarely in the singular ''frittula'') is a traditional dish made of pork parts in the city of Reggio Calabria and the surrounding province. ''Curcùci'' is also made in the preparation process. ''Frittola'' (''frittula'' in Parlemitan dialect) is a similar dish eaten in Palermo, Sicily, made from calf instead of pork. ''Frittole'' is prepared by cooking pork rind, pork meat and other less noble parts of the pig (part of the neck, cheek, tongue, nose, ears, kidneys, etc.) with pork fat (for taste). A ''Lonely Planet'' travel guide describes it as a soup made from meat, marrow and fat.Vesna MariLonely Planet SicilyRegional Guide Series Edition 4, illustrated Lonely Planet, 2008. . 332 pages page 51.

Ricotta
Ricotta ( in Italian) is an Italian whey cheese made from sheep, cow, goat, or Italian water buffalo milk whey left over from the production of other cheeses. Like other whey cheeses, it is made by coagulating the proteins that remain after the casein has been used to make cheese, notably albumin and globulin. Ricotta (literally meaning "recooked", "refined") protein can be harvested if the whey is first allowed to become more acidic by additional fermentation (by letting it sit for 12–24 hours at room temperature). Then the acidified whey is heated to near boiling. The combination of low pH and high temperature denatures the protein and causes it to flocculate, forming a fine curd. Once cooled, it is separated by passing the liquid through a fine cloth, leaving the curd behind. Ricotta curds are creamy white in appearance, and slightly sweet in taste. The fat content changes depending on the milk used. In this form, it is somewhat similar in texture to some fresh che ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Frittola (meat Dish)
''Frittola'' (''frittula'' in Palermitan dialect) is a traditional Sicilian street food from the Palermo region of Italy. It is similar to the ''frittole'' from Reggio Calabria, but seems to use calf parts instead of pig. The waste left from the slaughter of mechanically processed calves includes bones that are ground for industrial use, and pieces of meat boiled at high temperature in large silos. After the meat is cooked it is pressed to remove moisture and formed into bales. This process, similar to lyophilization (freeze drying), can preserve the ''frittoli'' for years. The ''frittularu'' "revives" the ''frittoli'' by frying it with lard and placing it in a large wicker basket (the ''panaru'') and a cloth of flavorings such as bay leaf, and pepper. It is served by hand and placed on a sheet of waxed paper or in a bun or focaccia. ''Frittola'' was once transported by donkey, but is now sold from three-wheeled vans.Diego GambettThe Sicilian Mafia: the business of privat ...

Feast Of Our Lady Of Consolation
A banquet (; ) is a formal large meal where a number of people consume food together. Banquets are traditionally held to enhance the prestige of a host, or reinforce social bonds among joint contributors. Modern examples of these purposes include a charitable gathering, a ceremony, or a celebration. They often involve speeches in honor of the topic or guest of honour. The older English term for a lavish meal was a feast, and "banquet" originally meant a specific and different kind of meal, often following a feast, but in a different room or even building, which concentrated on sweet foods of various kinds. These became highly fashionable as sugar became much more common in Europe at the start of the 16th century. It was a grand form of the dessert course, and special banqueting houses, often on the roof or in the grounds of large houses, were built for them. Such meals are also called a "sugar collation". Social meanings Banquets feature luxury foods, often including ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eggs As Food
Humans and human ancestors have scavenged and eaten animal eggs for millions of years. Humans in Southeast Asia had domesticated chickens and harvested their eggs for food by 1,500 BCE. The most widely consumed eggs are those of fowl, especially chickens. Eggs of other birds, including ostriches and other ratites, are eaten regularly but much less commonly than those of chickens. People may also eat the eggs of reptiles, amphibians, and fish. Fish eggs consumed as food are known as roe or caviar. Bird and reptile eggs consist of a protective eggshell, albumen ( egg white), and vitellus (egg yolk), contained within various thin membranes. Egg yolks and whole eggs store significant amounts of protein and choline, and are widely used in cookery. Due to their protein content, the United States Department of Agriculture formerly categorized eggs as ''Meats'' within the Food Guide Pyramid (now MyPlate). Despite the nutritional value of eggs, there are some potential health issues a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
