The Friends of the French Culinary Institute, Inc. What Marcella Hazan What Marcella Hazan taught us—chefs and home cooks alike—has become the very foundation of American cooking today. It’s impossible to imagine any home or restaurant kitchen without her imprint: good olive oil and balsamic vinegar, Parmigiano-Reggiano, mozzarella, arugula! A teacher and an academic, Marcella came to the U.S. as a newlywed in the mid-1950s and, appalled at what passed for good Italian food, taught herself— and later others, in cooking classes held in her NYC apartment—to create dishes that celebrated ingredients and purity of flavor. Craig Claiborne, of The New York Times, heard about her classes and introduced her to the world. She published her first cookbook, The Classic Italian Cook Book, in 1973. Marcella’s seminal cookbooks patiently reveal the many styles of Italian cooking; how the risottos of Piedmont differ from the Venetian; how the egg-based pastas of Emilia-Romagna, like lasagne, are unlike the water-based orecchiette of Apulia. She taught Americans to prize the essence of vegetables: to sauté radicchio, to fry zucchini blossoms, to grill peppers, and to leave market-fresh greens pretty much alone. But most of all she taught us that real Italian cooking comes from the heart of the family, allowing each of us to make her food our own. The scholarship will provide $20,000 in tuition aid to a student enrolled in the Italian Culinary Experience at the ICC’s New York location, starting March 19, 2014. Selection is based on financial need, merit, culinary goals, a passion for Italian cooking and a thoughtful expression of regard for the teachings and food philosophy of Marcella Hazan.

  • The Use of Food to Signify Class in the Comedies of Carlo Goldoni 1737-1762
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: “THE SAUCE IS BETTER THAN THE FISH”: THE USE OF FOOD TO SIGNIFY CLASS IN THE COMEDIES OF CARLO GOLDONI 1737-1762. Margaret Anne Coyle, Ph.D, 2006 Directed By: Dr. Heather Nathans, Department of Theatre This dissertation explores the plays of Venetian Commedia del’Arte reformer- cum-playwright Carlo Goldoni, and documents how he manipulates consumption and material culture using fashionable food and dining styles to satirize class structures in eighteenth century Italy. Goldoni’s works exist in what I call the “consuming public” of eighteenth century Venice, documenting the theatrical, literary, and artistic production of the city as well as the trend towards Frenchified social production and foods in the stylish eating of the period. The construction of Venetian society in the middle of the eighteenth century was a specific and legally ordered cultural body, expressed through various extra-theatrical activities available during the period, such as gambling, carnival, and public entertainments. The theatrical conventions of the Venetian eighteenth century also explored nuances of class decorum, especially as they related to audience behavior and performance reception. This decorum extended to the eating styles for the wealthy developed in France during the late seventeenth century and spread to the remainder of Europe in the eighteenth century. Goldoni ‘s early plays from 1737 through 1752 are riffs on the traditional Commedia dell’Arte performances prevalent in the period. He used food in these early pieces to illustrate the traditional class and regional affiliations of the Commedia characters. Plays such as The Artful Widow, The Coffee House, and The Gentleman of Good Taste experimented with the use of historical foods styles that illustrate social placement and hint at further character development.

  • Lent in Emilia-Romagna” March 2009
    “Lent in Emilia-Romagna” March 2009 Emilia-Romagna is known as Italy's heartland. Situated between Tuscany and La Marché on the south and Lomardy and the Veneto to the north, Emilia-Romagna is home to some of Italy's most famous brands. Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, Prosciutto di Parma, Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena (Balsamic vinegar) and Ferrari cars all call Emilia- Romagna home. Lent in Emilia-Romagna is really a contradiction. The region is known as Italy's most rich and gluttonous region. The food of the region is the main reason to travel here. Italy's most famous and storied cities are located in Emilia-Romagna. Bologna is home to several large universities and its name is given to perhaps the most famous ragù of Italy, Ragù Bolognese. Parma gives its name to Prosciutto di Parma and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese. Modena is home to the regions registered Balsamic vinegar. The Italian government heavily regulates all three of these products to insure they meet strict quality and taste standards. The name Emilia-Romagna has roots in the Ancient Roman legacy in these lands. Emilia refers to via Æmilia, an important Roman road connecting Rome to the northern part of Italy. Romagna is a corruption of Romània; when Ravenna was the capital of the Italian portion of the Byzantine Empire. Emilia-Romagna is separated from Tuscany by a mountain range call the Appennini. This is also referred to as the “Olive oil line” because olive trees grow well south of these mountains but not to the north. As a result, animal fats in the form of butter and lard are more frequently used in Emilia- Romagna.

A long time ago in a little town called Brookline, Massachusetts, a young John Kellogg Hodgman... in 1984... had a decision to make. [Stifles laughter.] Literally. Mac or PC? [Jesse chuckles.] At that point it was not Mac, right? In early 1980—well, no, I guess it was probably—probably 1983. 'Cause the decision was an Apple II or an IBM. And, uh, I'm trying to remember... John Lin had an Apple II. But John Wolf had an IBM clone. And it was very hard for me to decide. 'Cause both had different games. Apple II had, um, Track & Field. Where to run, you had hit the spacebar all the time. I'm still really good at that.

  • Marcella Hazan's Spaghetti with Smothered Onions
    Marcella Hazan's Spaghetti with Smothered Onions markbittman.com/recipes-1/marcella-hazan-smothered-onions May 17, 2019 Recipes Makes 4 to 6 servings Time 1 hour My favorite onion-featuring dish: they’re sliced thin, cooked until jammy (at least a half hour) in abundant olive oil, with salt and pepper and over pasta. All thanks to the great Marcella Hazan. INGREDIENTS 2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 ½ pounds onions, sliced very thin, about 6 cups Salt Pepper ½ cup dry white wine 2 tablespoons chopped parsley ⅓ cup Parmesan 1 to 1 ½ pounds spaghetti INSTRUCTIONS 1. Put the butter, olive oil, and onions with some salt in a large sauté pan. Cover and turn on the heat to very low. Cook for almost an hour until the onions become very soft. 2. Uncover the pan, raise the heat to medium high, and cook the onions until they become colored a deep, dark gold. Any liquid the onions may have shed must now boil away. 1/2 3. Add liberal grindings of pepper. Taste and correct for salt. Bear in mind that onions become very sweet when cooked in this manner and need an adequate amount of seasoning. Add the wine, turn the heat up, and stir frequently while the wine bubbles away. Add the parsley, stir thoroughly, and take off heat. 4. Toss with cooked drained pasta, adding the grated Parmesan. As you toss, separate the onion strands somewhat to distribute them as much as possible throughout the pasta. Serve immediately. Recipe from Marcella Hazan’s Essentials of Classic Italian Cooking 2/2.
