Barilla Pasta World Championship with His Recipe “Tortiglioni Alla Monzese Con Fiocchi Di Ricotta E Borragine” Daniel Evangelista, chef of famous restaurant Peperoncino in Ankara wins the 4th edition of the Barilla Pasta World Championship with his recipe “Tortiglioni alla Monzese con fiocchi di ricotta e borragine” The culinary journey to combine the best flavors and aromas from around the world with the Italian tradition of pasta has come to its end Parma, 19 June 2015 –– Daniel Evangelista, from the famous Peperoncino restaurant, is the winner of the 4th edition of the Pasta World Championship. Daniel Evangelista was awarded by Guido Barilla, President of the Barilla Group, who commented: “Pasta is a true Italian excellence all around the world. This year, for the fourth year, we wanted to reward the chef who was the most successful in enhancing this ingredient, not only as a product but for its cultural meaning as well. Pasta is a multifaceted product: it means healthy eating, the pleasure of sharing a meal, palatability and a sustainable choice for the planet”. On the 18th and 19th of June, 21 famous International Chefs were hosted by Barilla, to compete in the name and taste of real pasta, the key ingredient of Italian cuisine and a symbol of strong connections and dialogues between different cultures and countries. Total cost for each proposed dish was less than 10 euros. Daniel Evangelista prevailed over Vittorio Beltramelli from France, Matjaz Cotic from Slovenia and Oscar Ivan Sanchez from Dubai. His recipe “Tortiglioni alla Monzese con fiocchi di ricotta e borragine” won over “Spaghetti con le sarde” of the French colleague, “Trofie con odore di Carsico e sapore di mare” suggested by the Slovean chef and “Trofie liguri a cottura lenta, con piselli, zucchine e fiori” realized by the chef from Dubai. “I’m so happy and excited. It has been an honor to participate in such an important competition – commented Daniel Evangelista after being awarded – I chose a recipe from the places I come from, a dish originating from Brianza. I chose the pasta format according to both the ingredients and the special cooking technique I wanted to use. This dish holds memories from Turkey where I’ve been living for 14 years now, but the recipe is 100% Italian. Pasta for me means family, a hug from my mum. It’s key for me like bread and water. Pasta is fundamental, it is tasty and enables you to play with multiple cooking techniques and ingredients from all over the world. I dedicate this award to my father, who is not here anymore. The 21 Chefs, who are Ambassadors of Italian gastronomic culture, competed for the coveted prize of Pasta World Champion, which over the years has seen the triumph of Yoshi Yamada (Japan) and "Linguine with shrimp, mussels, clams and squid", Giorgio Nava (South Africa) and the "Pugliesi cavatelli with Cream of Broccoli and Oregano flowers" and Luca Torricelli (Switzerland), winner of the 2014 edition with "Spaghetti Sicily prawns with Mojito ". 1/2 The most important event in the world of pasta was hosted by Academia Barilla: the international center dedicated to Italian Gastronomic Culture, and meeting point between the most qualified representatives of gastronomy and Italian food culture lovers. The event also presented the five reasons why pasta should be eaten every day: 1. Pasta is a pillar of the Mediterranean diet, recognized worldwide for its excellent nutritional properties; 2. pasta is sustainable for the planet; 3. pasta helps keep you full; 4. pasta does not make you fat; 5. pasta brings people together around the table, and is one of the most appreciated, versatile and enjoyable dishes across the world. Parma and Barilla once more confirm themselves as symbols of the Italian Cuisine around the world as well as pioneers in the research and promotion of Italian Gastronomic tradition: chefs and guests had the opportunity to discover the Company’s latest important innovation with one of the newest treasures from the territory. In the breathtaking venue of the world’s largest labyrinth of Franco Maria Ricci, the new 3D pasta printer was disclosed and guests could “taste” the pasta of the future. The journey continues ….

    ITALFOODS Pasta Guide 2015 A BRIEF HISTORY OF PASTA - IT WASN’T MARCO POLO…. Although, Marco Polo did come across some kind of soft dough filled with meat – think steamed dumplings – in his Asian travels and though that may have ultimately led to the Italian tradition of stuffed pasta such as ravioli - Mr. Polo did not bring pasta to the Italians. It was already there. It is thought that Etrusco-Romans had a layered dish in which they used a noodle made from durum wheat – the noodle was called “lagane”. Sound familiar? Historians believe this was where modern day lasagne comes from. This food, mentioned in the first century AD, was not boiled like pasta, it was cooked in an oven. Dried and subsequently boiled pasta is thought to have arrived in Sicily with the Arabs somewhere in the eighth century. In fact it was in Palermo, Sicily that a factory began to produce dried pasta for local export in the twelfth century. Initially pasta was prepared by street vendors and eaten with ones hands. It was the common mans food and was simply served sprinkled with a little cheese. Sauce did not really come into existence until tomatoes were discovered in the New World and then brought back to Italy. Even then the people feared that the tomato was a poisonous fruit because it is a member of the Nightshade family. Inevitably pasta spread throughout the Italian peninsula and Europe due to its great shelf life and portability. Naturally when Italians migrated west to the United States they brought their culinary traditions with them.

    GRAGNANO (NAPOLI) ’O bbuono tante se cunosce, quanne se perde. (Il buono tanto si capisce quando si perde) Nella storia e nella comunicazione del Pastificio Garofalo il territorio ha sempre svolto un ruolo di primaria importanza. E le nostre iniziative lo confermano. Con Garofalo Firma il Cinema e i cortometraggi prodotti, raccontiamo Napoli e il suo meraviglioso mondo, con Gente del Fud riscopriamo prodotti dimenticati e valorizziamo le eccellenze agroalimentari e con la nostra pasta ricarichiamo i calciatori del Napoli negli spogliatoi dopo la partita. Quando ci è stata offerta la possibilità di acquistare e rilanciare il marchio Russo di Cicciano ci è venuto in mente tutto questo. Russo di Cicciano era un buon prodotto ad un prezzo accessibile a tutti. Quando è uscita dal mercato ce ne siamo dispiaciuti, da pastai e da campani, perchè ci sembrava che la nostra terra si fosse impoverita. Oggi, con gioia ed orgoglio, vi ripresentiamo la pasta Russo di Cicciano, abbiamo mantenuto i colori, le forme ed i formati che tutti noi ricordavamo, abbiamo creato un prodotto buono come era prima, aggiungendoci quel “pizzico” di esperienza che la nostra antica storia di pastai gragnanesi ci consente. Oggi ripresentiamo quello stesso rapporto prezzo/qualità, sperando di ridare il giusto rango a questo storico marchio campano. Pasta Russo di Cicciano è tornata.

    I FIORI DEL MALE Charles Baudelaire AL POETA IMPECCABILE AL GRAN MAGO DELLE LETTERE FRANCESI AL MIO CARISSIMO E TANTO VENERATO MAESTRO ED AMICO TEOFILO GAUTIER COI SENTIMENTI DE LA PIÙ PROFONDA UMILTÀ DEDICO QUESTI FIORI MALATICCI C.B. AL LETTORE La stoltezza, l'errore, il peccato, la sordidezza, governano gli spiriti nostri e tormentano i nostri corpi, e noi alimentiamo i nostri piacevoli rimorsi, come i mendicanti nutrono i loro insetti schifosi. I nostri peccati sono caparbî; i nostri pentimenti, vigliacchi; ci facciamo pagare lautamente le nostre confessioni, e rientriamo festanti nel sentiero limaccioso, credendo lavare tutte le nostre macchie con lagrime vili. Su il guanciale del male è Satana Trismegisto che culla senza posa il nostro spirito incantato, e il ricco metallo de la nostra volontà è tutto vaporizzato da questo chimico sapiente. È il Diavolo che tiene i fili che ci muovono! Negli oggetti ripugnanti troviamo delle attrattive: ogni giorno, senza orrore, scendiamo di un passo verso l'Inferno a traverso tenebre mefitiche. Come un libertino povero, che bacia e morde il seno martirizzato d'una vecchia baldracca, noi rubiamo a volo un piacere clandestino che spremiamo con forza come un'arancia avvizzita. Serrato, formicolante, come un milione d'elminti, nei nostri cervelli gozzoviglia un popolo di Demoni, e, quando respiriamo, la Morte, fiume invisibile, scende nei nostri polmoni con sordi lamenti. Se lo stupro, il veleno, il pugnale, l'incendio, non hanno ancora ricamato dei loro vaghi disegni il canovaccio volgare dei nostri

  • 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.
