Extra Virgin Olive Oil of Superior Quality and Specialty Food from Liguria
extra virgin olive oil of superior quality and specialty food from liguria Commercial office: Via de Togni 20, 20123 Milan – Italy Tel. +39-02-8645 3377 Fax +39-02-865 875 [email protected] www.rosmarinofarm.com The story behind “Costa dei Rosmarini” and the person making the product. Luisa Petrelli worked for Italian wine and food magazines and is a member of the Academy of Italian Cuisine. She likes cooking and is considered particularly good in the Mediterranean cuisine. In 1991 she bought in Liguria an old farm located in front of Portofino with an extraordinary view at the Tigullio Gulf. This small property is called “Rosmarino Farm” because is surrounded by secular plants of rosemary. It has an ancient stone-house and some 1,000 olive trees growing in stripes of land sustained by dry-stone walls built in centuries. The farm can only be reached by foots through a medieval road paved in stones. The farm house is a few hundred year old and has been restored maintaining the old characteristics (fire heating, fire cooking, stone walls, wood floors, old instruments, etc.). This country-house has been published as an example of the old life-style and decoration. Since the Luisa cuisine has been always based on extra virgin olive oil, in 1995 she decided to start a limited production of high quality extra virgin olive oil for top cuisine and gourmets. The first customer was Hotel Cipriani in Venice. Since then other prestigious names and famous cooks decided to buy her oil. Today, taking advantage of the local oil masters, “Costa dei Rosmarini” is produced in Imperia in small quantities at a time and its superior quality is constantly controlled by official tasters of ONAOO (the Italian Association of Olive Oil Tasters).

The Geography of Italian Pasta
The Geography of Italian Pasta David Alexander University of Massachusetts, Amherst Pasta is as much an institution as a food in Italy, where it has made a significant contribution to national culture. Its historical geography is one of strong regional variations based on climate, social factors, and diffusion patterns. These are considered herein; a taxonomy of pasta types is presented and illustrated in a series of maps that show regional variations. The classification scheme divides pasta into eight classes based on morphology and, where appropriate, filling. These include the spaghetti and tubular families, pasta shells, ribbon forms, short pasta, very small or “micro- pasta” types, the ravioli family of filled pasta, and the dumpling family, which includes gnocchi. Three patterns of dif- fusion of pasta types are identified: by sea, usually from the Mezzogiorno and Sicily, locally through adjacent regions, and outwards from the main centers of adoption. Many dry pasta forms are native to the south and center of Italy, while filled pasta of the ravioli family predominates north of the Apennines. Changes in the geography of pasta are re- viewed and analyzed in terms of the modern duality of culture and commercialism. Key Words: pasta, Italy, cultural geography, regional geography.

Medieval Cuisine
MEDIEVAL CUISINE Food as a Cultural Identity CHRISTOPHER MACMAHON CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY CHANNEL ISLANDS When reflecting upon the Middle Ages, there are many views that might come to one’s mind. One may think of Christian writings or holy warriors on crusade. Perhaps another might envision knights bedecked in heavy armor seeking honorable combat or perhaps an image of cities devastated by plague. Yet few would think of the Middle Ages in terms of cuisine. Cuisine in this time period can be approached in a variety of ways, but for many, the mere mention of food would provoke images of opulent feasts, of foods of luxury. David Waines takes this approach when looking at how medieval Islamic societies approached the idea of luxury foods. Waines begins with the idea invoked above, that a luxury food was one which was “expensive, pleasurable and unnecessary.”1 But, Waines goes on to ask, could not luxury also be considered a dish, no matter how humble the origin, whose preparation was so exquisite that it was beyond compare?2 While challenging the traditional thinking in regards to how one views cuisine, it must be noted that Waines’ focus is upon luxury foods. Whether prohibitively expensive or expertly prepared, such dishes would only be available to a very select elite. Another common method for looking at the role food played in medieval life is to look at the relationship between food and the economy. This relationship occurred in both local and international trade. Derek Keene investigates how cities “profoundly influenced the economies… of their hinterlands” by examining the relationship between the city of London and the area surrounding the city.3 Keene demonstrates that a network of ringed zones worked outward from the city, each with a specific support function.

AP-42, CH 9.9.5: Pasta Manufacturing
9.9.5 Pasta Manufacturing 9.9.5.1 General1-2 Although pasta products were first introduced in Italy in the 13th century, efficient manufacturing equipment and high-quality ingredients have been available only since the 20th century. Prior to the industrial revolution, most pasta products were made by hand in small shops. Today, most pasta is manufactured by continuous, high capacity extruders, which operate on the auger extrusion principle in which kneading and extrusion are performed in a single operation. The manufacture of pasta includes dry macaroni, noodle, and spaghetti production. 9.9.5.2 Process Description1-2 Pasta products are produced by mixing milled wheat, water, eggs (for egg noodles or egg spaghetti), and sometimes optional ingredients. These ingredients are typically added to a continuous, high capacity auger extruder, which can be equipped with a variety of dies that determine the shape of the pasta. The pasta is then dried and packaged for market. Raw Materials — Pasta products contain milled wheat, water, and occasionally eggs and/or optional ingredients. Pasta manufacturers typically use milled durum wheat (semolina, durum granulars, and durum flour) in pasta production, although farina and flour from common wheat are occasionally used. Most pasta manufacturers prefer semolina, which consists of fine particles of uniform size and produces the highest quality pasta product. The water used in pasta production should be pure, free from off- flavors, and suitable for drinking. Also, since pasta is produced below pasteurization temperatures, water should be used of low bacterial count. Eggs (fresh eggs, frozen eggs, dry eggs, egg yolks, or dried egg solids) are added to pasta to make egg noodles or egg spaghetti and to improve the nutritional quality and richness of the pasta.

The-Art-Of-Cooking-I-Tuscany
1 COOKING IN THE MIDDLE AGES In the Middle Ages the Mediterranean trade in spices, silk and other luxuries from Africa and Asia shipped to Genoa, Venice and Florence, made these cities very rich. The level of culinary refinement and diversity was especially great when compared to the rest of the continent. Italian cuisine was, and still is, better described as a multitude of highly varied regional cuisines, each with long traditions ,and their own specialties. In the Middle Ages local Italian foodstuffs were exported to the New World rather than the other way around, though important foreign products such as vanilla, corn, kidney beans, and tomato were used. Many Italian typical dishes were invented and refined during the Late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance. “Pasta” was used by everyone by the 13th century, though it was commonly made with rice flour rather than durum wheat; “pizza”, the medieval Italian term for "pie", and “torte”(cakes) came in many varieties with a wide range of toppings; “polenta“ made from French green lentils or barley, “risotto” and a myriad of local or regional variants of sausages and cheese were the main dishes. Grapes, eggs ,olive oil and lemons were used as cooking ingredients. Many recipes we enjoy today as an expression of best Tuscan cuisine often date back to old times and Medieval cuisine. The Medieval cuisine was essentially based on very simple dishes, sometimes heavily spiced with pepper or ginger. It consisted of very tasty dishes and preservation such as salting, smoking or brine were used. Meals consisted of the first “ancestors” of today’s bread such as porridge oats and” polenta”, followed by vegetables and meat (especially pork and chicken).
