Sappiamo da tempo che la Scienza in cucina di Pellegrino Artusi fa parte a buon diritto di quel mannello di libri (e il pensiero va immediatamente a Pinocchio e Cuore) che sono entrati negli ultimi decenni dell’Ottocento nelle case di milioni di italiani e non ne sono più usciti; libri letti e riletti da intere generazioni che col tempo hanno mantenuto, anzi accresciuto, il loro successo popo- lare. Si tratta di capolavori che hanno contribuito a creare un colloquio fitto e intenso e una confidenza fiduciosa, soprattutto di donne e bambini, con un italiano scritto-parlato scorrevole e appropriato.

  • Il Modello Artusiano E La Gastronomia Italiana Fra Anolini, Agnolotti, Cappelletti, Tortellini
    «LA CUCINA È UNA BRICCONCELLA»: IL MODELLO ARTUSIANO E LA GASTRONOMIA ITALIANA FRA ANOLINI, AGNOLOTTI, CAPPELLETTI, TORTELLINI Come osservava Pietro Camporesi già nel 1989, «L’importanza dell’Artusi è notevolissima e bisogna riconoscere che la Scienza in cucina ha fatto per l’unificazione nazionale più di quanto non siano riusciti a fare i Promessi Sposi»; lo studioso continuava sottolineando «il valore socioeducativo di un manuale che non è soltanto un libro di cucina come tanti altri: accanto a Cuore (e a Pinocchio) è uno dei massimi prodotti della società italiana del secondo ottocento, una di quelle bibbie popolari […]»1. L’affermazione è stata confermata dagli studi successivi: si vedano almeno le pagine impor- tanti di Alberto Capatti e Massimo Montanari, La cucina italiana. Storia di una cultura del 1999 (pp. 237-40)2, che riportano non a caso l’afferma- zione di Artusi, «Dopo l’unità d’Italia mi sembrava logica conseguenza il pensare all’unità della lingua parlata, che pochi curano e molti osteggiano, forse per un falso amor proprio e forse anche per la lunga e inveterata consuetudine ai propri dialetti»3. L’osservazione si inserisce in un contesto assai interessante sul piano delle notazioni linguistiche: infatti già dalla prima edizione4 nella ricetta del Cacciucco Artusi si soffermava con acu- tezza sulla variabilità diatopica nel linguaggio gastronomico, sia in senso onomasiologico sia semasiologico, con riferimento proprio a cacciucco e al suo equivalente adriatico brodetto (che però com’è noto a Firenze vale tutt’altra cosa5), con la conclusione: «La confusione di questi e simili ter- mini fra provincia e provincia, in Italia, è tale che poco manca a formare 1 Piero Camporesi, La terra e la luna, Milano, Il Saggiatore, 1989, pp.

    Andreo & Katrina Larsen ITALIAN KEITTIÖIDEN AAKKOSET enogastronominen ensyklopedia ITALIA – SUOMI Italian keittöiden aakkoset © Andreo & Katrina Larsen Ulkoasu: R. Penttinen Kustantaja: Mediapinta, 2009 ISBN 978-952-235-084-8 JOHDANTO Italia koostuu kahdestakymmenestä eri alueesta ja 110 maakunnasta, jot- ka on kootttu yhtenäiseksi valtioksi vasta 1800-luvun lopulla (ensi kertaa sitten Rooman valtakunnan). Italian luonto vaihtelee viileistä vuoristois- ta lämpimiin rannikkoseutuihin ja pitkän historian saatossa niin etruskit, foinikialaiset, kreikkalaiset, germaanit, normannit kuin arabitkin ovat li- sänneet oman jälkensä Italian kulttuuriin sekä ruoka- ja juomatarjontaan. Maantieteestä ja historiasta johtuen kullakin Italian alueella on vahva ja omaleimainen ruokaperinteensä. Näinollen ei voi puhua yhdestä Italian keittiöstä, vaan Italian keittiöistä. Kuitenkin yhteistä koko Italialle on rak- kaus ruokaan, selkeys ja laadun ja raaka-aineiden kunnioitus. Italialainen ruoka kuuluu rakastetuimpiin maailmassa. Pizza, pasta ja spagetti ovat tuttuja sanoja kaikkialla, mutta tuhannet muut ruokaan tai juomaan liittyvät termit ovat tyystin tuntemattomia Italian tai jopa oman maakuntansa ulkopuolella. Asiaa mutkistaa lisää synonyymien suuri määrä; sama kala tai sieni esiintyy useilla täysin toisistaan poikkeavilla nimillä eri alueilla. Samakin sana voidaan kirjoittaa hieman eri tavoin eri puolilla ja rajamaakunnissa tuntuu naapurikielten vaikutus. Lisäksi yksi sana voi tarkoittaa monta eri asiaa.

  • 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.

In entrambi i casi, essa cambia- va in base al clima, alle varietà delle risorse disponibili nel territorio, agli eventi storici (come guerre e carestie) e al calendario liturgico, che prevedeva precise restrizioni in alcuni periodi dell’anno, come per esempio durante la Quaresima. La biforcazione sociale tra le mense prese avvio in epoca carolingia, quando i disboscamenti realizzati per aumentare le aree agricole ridussero le superfici fore- stali e i boschi cominciarono a essere riservati all’uso dei potenti, per cui la selvag- gina (cervi, cinghiali ecc.) divenne un’esclusiva delle mense dei signori, mentre i contadini al massimo potevano disporre degli animali da cortile.

A brief look at the concept of the program, every dish is only as good as the raw ingredients that we use to construct it. Italian Cuisine around the world is famous for its simplicity of flavours, and this is attributed to the simplicity of a complex network of raw ingredients. For every chef to be a Master in their own field, and to innovate on tradition, they must first understand where a particular plate, a particular taste, or a particular ingredient comes from. Understanding the concept of regionalism in Italian cuisine is vital to understand where a particular product in Italy comes from and therefore how that product is used to create menu items.

L’arrivo delle festività di fine anno ha creato sconcerto, malumore e rabbia. Tutti sono coscienti della estrema difficoltà del momento, ma la quotidiana sceneggiata degli esperti e dei politici, che cambiando idea tutti i giorni emanano editti che ogni giorno contraddicono le imposizioni del giorno prima, lasciano tutti sconcertati e allibiti. Non sapendo se, come e con chi festeggiare la conclusione di questo “annus horribilis”, se pasteggeremo da soli, con parenti, con congiunti, a casa o a ristorante, lo Sgabello si dà alla cultura gastronomia, fornendo qualche spunto “mangereccio”, almeno per parlare di cose “concrete”. La cultura gastronomica italiana è estremamente varia, tiene conto delle tradizioni famigliari, delle risorse del territorio, degli inquinamenti benefici provenienti dall’esterno ed è impossibile costruire un menù condiviso da sessanta milioni di esperti di cucina. Pertanto, come è abitudine dello Sgabello, andiamo un po’ in qua e un po’ in là, sperando di non disgustare i veri intenditori.
