Putting pression on some of his musician friends, sceptical at the beginning, managed, in time, thanks to a patient and constant work of research and musical re-elaboration to present a vast repertory about love, work and fight songs of &lt;em&gt;Irpinia.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Other components became members of the group successively. &lt;strong&gt;Pratola Folk&lt;/strong&gt; group, affiliated to ARCI-UISP, thanks to the personal interest of &lt;em&gt;Orlando Marano&lt;/em&gt; to the RAI’s headquarters of Napoli, recorded an LP “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Voci dalle Terre del Sud&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;” distributed by R.C.A. in 1977. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;From 1974 to 1980 the group made a lot of shows during very important national and international events, both in the most important &lt;em&gt;Italian&lt;/em&gt; cities and in foreign ones (&lt;em&gt;Germany&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;Switzerland&lt;/em&gt;). &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;With the terrible earthquake in &lt;em&gt;Irpinia&lt;/em&gt; (1980), the constant work of research and musical re-elaboration, proffered by the group &lt;strong&gt;Pratola Folk&lt;/strong&gt; , failed because of the several professional busy in the rebuilding of public and private town planning of Irpinia’s villages. From 1980 to 1987 the group continued, in a reduced way, to perform in &lt;em&gt;Italian&lt;/em&gt; squares and &lt;em&gt;Irpinia&lt;/em&gt;’s ones, with new components too. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In 1987, some exponents of the group, with petty and childish explanations were able to involve other components who had decided to give up the group. You made several attempts, in time, to compose the group again. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;In Autumn 2003, after a revival concert, made in the public park of &lt;em&gt;Pratola Serra&lt;/em&gt; in September, the friends were successful in the enterprise and they compose the group again together with some young men, who apart from their musical talent, they believed firmly in the research and the continuation of folklore.Now the components of the group, together with the new arrivals, believe firmly in the undertaken work.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-7253357142929482305?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/7253357142929482305/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/06/short-folks-story-in-my-area.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/7253357142929482305'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/7253357142929482305'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/06/short-folks-story-in-my-area.html' title='Short Folk’s story in my area'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/TB6B_ZyME_I/AAAAAAAAAJk/IEy0C2R1egg/s72-c/pratolofolk.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-1793349013653782218</id><published>2010-06-02T12:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-02T12:09:59.459-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Iter Ibericum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/TAasd0gM63I/AAAAAAAAAJY/ycLO-CqaAVY/s1600/Hispania.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5478255625052679026" style="DISPLAY: block;

Virgen de Valme&lt;/strong&gt; in Dos Hermanas is even warmer. It isthe second meeting of the &lt;strong&gt;Comenius&lt;/strong&gt; project, that &lt;em&gt;I. I. S. Petradefusi&lt;/em&gt; Section of Classical High School, is developing with partner schools of the towns Dos Hermanas (Spain), &lt;em&gt;Zacyntos&lt;/em&gt; (Greece) and &lt;em&gt;Mouscron &lt;/em&gt;(Belgium). It’s some years &lt;strong&gt;European Union&lt;/strong&gt; responsibles for education programs encourage exchanges between schools in different countries. Students working on joint projects, that schools decide individually, freely choosing the topic but always following the rules established by European and national agencies. Families are directly involved in the project, hosting the students of partner schools. Moreover a Comenius project, properly interpreted, arouse the partners: enthusiasm, helpfulness, generosity, familiarity. We got to Dos Hermanas while they were celebrating the &lt;em&gt;Feria in Seville&lt;/em&gt; (the two cities seem almost to be one since Dos Hermanas increased in recent decades from a few thousand to one hundred and twenty thousand inhabitants). The Feria of Seville (Spanish city festivals are so called ) is an important anniversary and attracts thousands of visitors (this year the chronicals report there have been six hundred thousand people). Under the sun that beat strong even though we were in spring, the main activity during the Feria was to taste wine, eat cheese, ham, seasoned olives, then dance flamenco to the rhythm of castanets and beat hands. To feast women of all ages wear the traditional costume, like gitana ones (long skirts flounced with lace bodice and snug), as they wore in Spain until the beginning of the twentieth century. So the teacher &lt;strong&gt;Marisa&lt;/strong&gt; (here we use naming principals and teachers), the project manager for the Spanish school, accompanied the guests to the Feria, offering flowers to colleagues to adorn her hair, as is the tradition in the Feria. Dos Hermanas’ town , very nearly three times bigger than our Avellino, shows the modern face of its neighborhoods (&lt;em&gt;barrios),&lt;/em&gt; extremely clean and well-organized. Drivers not only comply with road signs, but aboveall comply with pedestrians, when crossing the road. I think it is not just for concern of the fines that local police can impose to the unruly but for inner sense of respect. At City Hall the delegations, with headmistress of the institute, Ms &lt;strong&gt;Carmen&lt;/strong&gt;, were welcomed in the council chamber by a young woman councillor of education, Mrs &lt;strong&gt;Ana Conde&lt;/strong&gt;, who carefully showed the administrative organization of the city. Twenty seven are the advisers, including the mayor (who in Spanish is called&lt;em&gt; alcalde&lt;/em&gt;). I must say regretfully that the administration of a municipality in our province, even of a few thousand inhabitants, takes more than half of those are enough for this Spanish city of over one hundred thousand people. The care for culture in Dos Hermanas is not a rhetorical or parade. They really believe in the importance of culture as social promotion! One example is the municipal library. This, on two floors of a building downtown, is really exceptional, not for the number of volumes owned, but for the organization which is without parallel in our country: downstairs, at street level, the shelves of books in a large reading room, upstairs books and computers. The regulars of our library are usually students, here I saw many elderly people sitting at tables reading books as well as some disabled people did; we all stopped to admire a group of nursery school children guided by moderator, who mimicked the characters of a fable. The opening time to the public is without interruption twenty four hours a day. In Dos Hermanas you can spend the night in the library! At school pupils of four countries presented the institute they came from and the work already done on the dietary habits of teenagers. The students have shown no embarrassment but great enthusiasm speaking at the microphone in front of an audience so diverse in origin and addresses of national studies. After all they are the protagonists.Families have loved to greet us offering Andalusian specialties preparing them the same way they use to do in their homes. We have to give a due recognition to families and teachers who are the prime movers of these experiences; they make the greatest contribution to mutual understanding and construction of a great European nation. Much more important is this quiet but fruitful work if we consider the difficulties that the EU must face daily: prejudice to be overcome need more and more of contacts and exchange of experiences between people of different countries.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-4650685195207549113?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/4650685195207549113/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/05/our-second-meeting_19.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/4650685195207549113'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/4650685195207549113'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/05/our-second-meeting_19.html' title='Our second meeting'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S_QS6gPgktI/AAAAAAAAAJQ/iS5vzsWkPWs/s72-c/Spagna+x.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-4980768741888561061</id><published>2010-05-01T13:14:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-01T13:18:11.075-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The first meeting</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S9yMABFtK5I/AAAAAAAAAJI/2QM6BTWiSYs/s1600/Meeting+belga.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466397979641195410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 141px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S9yMABFtK5I/AAAAAAAAAJI/2QM6BTWiSYs/s320/Meeting+belga.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Remarks about the first meeting "ECAP", published October 25, 2009 in newspaper "&lt;em&gt;Corriere&lt;/em&gt;" of Avellino (Italy)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-4980768741888561061?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/4980768741888561061/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/05/first-meeting.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/4980768741888561061'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/4980768741888561061'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/05/first-meeting.html' title='The first meeting'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S9yMABFtK5I/AAAAAAAAAJI/2QM6BTWiSYs/s72-c/Meeting+belga.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-7899222930097352349</id><published>2010-04-08T06:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-04-08T06:10:01.004-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Special Easter traditions in our area.</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S73Vk675NJI/AAAAAAAAAJA/apxCPydVd4Q/s1600/NUSSA+E+PANAR.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457753153715385490" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 234px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S73Vk675NJI/AAAAAAAAAJA/apxCPydVd4Q/s320/NUSSA+E+PANAR.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Situated at the northeast border of Campania with the region Puglia, Greci, is the town of the province of Avellino, which jealously guards, many centuries, its language and its culture. Its geographical position in the inland area of Southern Italy, has helped to keep the oldest part of the Albanian language, compared to communities arbëreshe widespread in Calabria, Basilicata, Molise, Puglia and Sicily. The community of Greci it is the only town in the province of Avellino, and the whole Campania region, where arbëreshe is spoken, the language brought by Albanians in the fifteenth century theyrepopulated many lands of Southern Italy. The town, of the Catholic faith, had kept the greek-orthodox rite on liturgy, which was obstructed and was replaced at the end of the seventeenth century, with the Latin rite. The religious feast in Greci remain, however, some sections of the ancient rite in the period of Easter. Good Friday community grecese still retains an 'ancient liturgical tradition. It is sung on the evening of Good Friday in an old church song arbëreshe, the "Kalimera", which commemorates the Passion of Christ. The song consists of over three hundred verses, sung at a rate of threnody (funeral song in Ancient Greece) by women in the country arbëreshe language. "Kalimera Krishtit Baku (Kalimera Benedict Christ) begins with a heartfelt cry" Hasten people hurry / hurry than they are / all that Christ did for us / you now you know (Erdhni erdhni gjnjat / Erdhni sa më jinni / E na sa Krishti trees / Ju dwarfs ket to nationals). It continues with an invitation to accept Jesus of the humble part of the faithful: Oi you blessed Jesus / accept this passion / that we will sing / with all devotion (or you Krishti baku / grade Kete passiun / s na ket këndomi / but gjthë devuciun). The village women, during Holy Week, are used to prepare some sweets at home: the bagels, pizza with ricotta, "Panarin" for boys and "Nusan" for girls. Once these cakes were baked in public ovens of the town. "Panari" and "Nussia (respectively mean basket and doll) are made of shortbread decorated with hundreds and thousands, which have the characteristic shape of the basket to the heart and the doll, as Easter gifts to children, the" Basket "and to the girls “ Doll”. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-7899222930097352349?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/7899222930097352349/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/04/special-easter-traditions-in-our-area.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/7899222930097352349'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/7899222930097352349'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/04/special-easter-traditions-in-our-area.html' title='Special Easter traditions in our area.'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S73Vk675NJI/AAAAAAAAAJA/apxCPydVd4Q/s72-c/NUSSA+E+PANAR.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-3514175059463172214</id><published>2010-03-21T08:26:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-03-27T08:39:00.709-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Perpetual Calendar</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;LICEO CLASSICO PIEDRADEFUSI&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CLASSE : V A 2009/10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5451110094587537330" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 494px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 359px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S6Y7v_Nvp7I/AAAAAAAAAHA/61BO_Nfkfzk/s400/frontespizio.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;PERPETUAL CALENDAR:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;A typical dish of our area for each month&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;“Non enim adprenditis nec retinetis nec velocissimae omnium rei moram facitis, sed abire ut rem supervacaneam ac reparabilem sinitis” (&lt;em&gt;L.

Let brown and then add all peeled tomatoes -made pieces, when the tomatoes will be mushy, add one or two ladles of broth and let it dry completely.While the garlic cooks, place the bacon in another pan, diced or strips, fry in his own fat dissolved, after which add the beans, Cook for a few minutes, then joined a couple of ladles broth and let it be absorbed by beans .At this point, add the beans with the bacon to the mixture and cook them together for a few minutes. Boil the pasta of your choice in salt water, and half-cooked, add to the bean soup that you have prepared.Finish cooking the pasta and beans added when needed, a ladle of cooking water or the broth. The watery pulp and beans depends on your taste: add both liquid (hot please!) Than it will be used to obtain the desired consistency. If you want to get a very creamy pasta and beans, you can blend with a mixer two or three tablespoons of beans reducing them in cream and add to pasta. When cooked, add a bit of black pepper and remaining olive oil raw, Cook for 1 minute and serve your pasta and beans hot&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OCTOBER&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1 KALENDIS OCTOBRIBUS Ante diem septimum decimum Kalendas&lt;br /&gt;۩ Fides et Honor ۩ Tigillum Sororium † Sanctus Romanus&lt;br /&gt;16 Postridie IDUS OCTROBRES&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 Postridie Nonas OCTROBRES † Sanctus Octavianus&lt;br /&gt;17 ante DIEM SEXTUM DECIMUM kadendas novembRes&lt;br /&gt;3 ante quintum diem Nonas octobRes † Sanctus Franciscus ۩ Augustalia (primo die)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18 ante DIEM QUINTUM DECIMUM kadendas novembRes&lt;br /&gt;♥ Dies natalis Luisae † Sanctus Luca&lt;br /&gt;4 ANTE QUARTUM DIEM NONAS OCTROBRES ۩ Ieiunium Cereris&lt;br /&gt;19ante diem quartum decimum kalendas novembRe ۩ Armilustrium (ultimo die)&lt;br /&gt;5 ANTE TERTIUm DIEM NONAS OCTROBRES&lt;br /&gt;20 ante diem tertium decimum kalendas novembRes&lt;br /&gt;6 Pridie Nonas octrobRes ♥ Dies natalis Leilae et Danielis&lt;br /&gt;21 ante diem DUOdecimum kalendas novembRes † Sancta Ursula&lt;br /&gt;7 NONIS OCTROBRIBUS&lt;br /&gt;22 ante diem UNDECIMUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;8 Postridie Nonas OCTROBRES&lt;br /&gt;23 ANTE DIEM DECIMUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;9 ANTE DIEM SEPTMUM IDUS OCTROBRES ۩ Felicitas ۩ Templum Apollinis Palatini&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24 ANTE DIEM NONUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;10 ANTE DIEM SEXTUM IDUS OCTROBRES † Sanctus Daniel ♥ Dies natalis Veronicae&lt;br /&gt;25 ANTE DIEM OCTAVUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;11 ANTE DIEM QUINTUM IDUS OCTROBRES ۩ Meditrinalia&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26 ANTE DIEM SEPTIMUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES ۩ Ludi Victoriae Sullanae (primo die)&lt;br /&gt;12 ANTE DIEM QUARTUM IDUS OCTROBRES ۩ Augustalia (ultimo die)&lt;br /&gt;27 ANTE DIEM SEXTUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;13 Ante diem tertium Idus OCTROBRES ۩ Fontinalia&lt;br /&gt;28 ANTE DIEM QUINTUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES ۩ Isia (primo die) † Sanctus Simon&lt;br /&gt;14 Pridie Idus OCTROBRES&lt;br /&gt;29 ANTE DIEM QUARTUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;15 IDIBUS OCTOBRIBUS ۩ October Equus&lt;br /&gt;30 ANTE DIEM TERTIUM KALENDAS NOVEMBRES † Sanctus Hieronymus&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31 PRIDIE KALENDAS NOVEMBRES&lt;br /&gt;Armilustrium: Festa celebrata il 19 marzo e il 19 ottobre in onore del dio Mars, ossia Marte.

Children like &lt;em&gt;strufoli&lt;/em&gt; very much because it is prepared with honey and small coloured confetti (candy).&lt;br /&gt;Ingredients: For the dough: 2 cups flour; 1 tbs. sugar; 6 eggs; grated juice of 1/2 lemon; 2 egg yolks; 1 pinch of salt; 2 tbs. butter; frying oil.&lt;br /&gt;For the topping: 8 oz. honey; 4 oz. candied orange rinds, finely diced.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;ZEPPOLE (SWEET DOUGHNUT)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Typical of the region, Campania, fried donuts are made with a paste made of flour and water, milk, anise and served with honey or sugar and orange peel.Among theNeapolitan trades there was also that of “&lt;em&gt;zeppollara&lt;/em&gt;”, a woman who fried these donuts in oil or pork fat in the street and served covered of honey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ingredients for Zeppole (Makes about 20 donuts): 1000gr flour• 4 eggs• 5 tablespoons sugar + 5 for the coverage• 100gr of butter• 2 cubes of yeast• grated lemon peel• Vanillin• cinnamon (who likes)• a pinch of salt.&lt;br /&gt;Procedure: On the rolling board create the "fountain" with the flour and the center for the whole eggs, baking soda dissolved in a little warm water, a pinch of salt, sugar and lemon peel. Mix everything together and create a soft dough, but not soft. Cover the dough cotton or linen and let it rise for about an hour in a hot and dry. After the interval created small pasta tubes by cutting every 10 centimeter. Close zeppole circle and fry in deep fat of peanuts. When donuts will be well browned on both sides, drain them the oil and dry on paper towels. Still warm from passing into the remaining sugar flavored with vanilla and cinnamon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;CROCCANTE DI MANDORLE (ALMOND BRITTLE) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Hundred years ago, when children had not candies, not chocolate bars and snacks, in towns and villages of our province, the grandmothers did kind of candy with sugar and toasted almonds for their grandchildren.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ingredients for 6 portions&lt;br /&gt;500 g. peeled almonds&lt;br /&gt;500 g sugar&lt;br /&gt;2 tablespoons sunflower oil&lt;br /&gt;1 lemon&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Procedure : quickly rub the almonds with a cloth, then pour into a pan. Also add sugar and bring to a boil to a simmer, stirring constantly, continue cooking for 1 hour, stirring so that the mixture does not stick to the bottom of the pan, the end of cooking the almonds must be complectely wrapped in the sugar dissolved. Grease a marble slab with a layer unifirme oil sunlower seeds. Pour the mixture. Leveled the preparation of almonds and sugar by first using a wooden tablespoon slightly wet with water, then cut the lemon in half, sweet rubbing on the cut parts. When the brittle is completely cool cut into pieces and decorate as desired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Alberto class IV B&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-811444767317450763?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/811444767317450763/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/christmas-cakes-in-my-area.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/811444767317450763'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/811444767317450763'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/christmas-cakes-in-my-area.html' title='CHRISTMAS CAKES in my area.'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S1XulieBOfI/AAAAAAAAACU/BbzULgRRtBc/s72-c/torrone.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-2429934180756699968</id><published>2010-01-03T08:07:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-03T08:22:24.199-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Have good table manners</title><content type='html'>&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422547374289068082" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 216px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 294px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DCG2Y6IDI/AAAAAAAAABs/L82S3VhZMuQ/s320/image020.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;L' ETICHETTA A TAVOLA NELL' ANTICA ROMA&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;L' etichetta a tavola nell' antica Roma obbediva a regole oggi impensabili, anzi censurabili senza mezzi termini. Viceversa, il nostro galateo sarebbe allora sembrato quasi demenziale. La sala da pranzo ( triclinium ), arredata con lusso, sfarzo e raffinatezza a seconda dell' immagine che l' ospite voleva dare di sé, disponeva di letti triclinari sui quali ci si sdraiava di sbieco, disposti attorno ad un basso tavolo. Il triclinio era uno spazio dove prendevano posto tre letti. Ognuno poteva essere lungo fino a due metri e quaranta centimetri e su di esso potevano prendere posto massimo tre persone le quali erano semisdraiate con il busto eretto aiutate in questa posizione da un braccio mentre l'altro serviva per mangiare. &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DCw0Ult0I/AAAAAAAAAB8/jHpPySfB_ts/s1600-h/image024.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422548095288588098" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 230px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 237px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DCw0Ult0I/AAAAAAAAAB8/jHpPySfB_ts/s320/image024.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tra i triclinia circolavano in continuazione servi con recipienti colmi di acqua ed asciugamani per permettere ai commensali di lavarsi le mani ogni volta che ne avessero necessità. In un triclinium formato da tre letti potevano prendere posto al massimo nove persone, che si disponevano semisdraiate in modo tale che tutti e nove volgessero lo sguardo al centro del triclinium. In questo modo la conversazione era seguita da tutti i commensali come se fossero seduti intorno ad un tavolo rotondo. Su questo non potevano mancare la saliera, l' ampolla dell' aceto, gli stuzzicadenti consistenti in una spina di legno o in una piuma e, se ritenuto necessario, lo schiacciamosche. Le stoviglie erano alquanto semplici al confronto con la fila di posate di oggi: la forchetta era pressoché sconosciuta e l' uso del coltello abbastanza infrequente, però venivano utilizzati i cucchiai. Servivano a tavola gli schiavi più abili ed avvenenti, ciascuno con compiti precisi tra cui la mescita del vino. Alcuni provvedevano a fornire bacili d' acqua affinché gli ospiti potessero lavarsi le mani prima o durante il banchetto e talvolta detergevano i loro piedi impolverati dal cammino lungo la strada; altri schiavi ( scissores ) in cucina al servizio dello chef preparavano i piatti delle vivande già tagliate a pezzetti. Si mangiava appoggiati sul gomito sinistro, una posizione abbastanza scomoda per noi, ed il galateo imponeva di prendere il cibo con grazia, con la punta delle dita, per non sporcarsi il viso con le mani. Chi proprio non ci riusciva, si puliva con la mollica di pane o con un tovagliolo, che serviva anche a portare a casa gli avanzi del banchetto, secondo la comune consuetudine. I rifiuti del pasto venivano invece gettati a terra e per mascherare questo brutto vedere il mosaicista Soso di Pergamo, secondo quanto riferisce Plinio il Vecchio, inventò l' " asarotos oikos ", cioè il pavimento non spazzato da collocare nella sala del triclinio. &lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DDbgmWQKI/AAAAAAAAACE/9GYM6UfmomY/s1600-h/image027.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422548828728737954" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 457px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 283px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DDbgmWQKI/AAAAAAAAACE/9GYM6UfmomY/s320/image027.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;In ogni triclinio si parla, si discute, si ride, ci si diverte e, nel mezzo della cena, il padrone di casa annuncia una notizia importante e subito dopo grande gioia generale di tutti gli invitati, ovazioni ed applausi a non finire. Immaginiamo ora di spostarci, in un mese estivo, in un peristilio (giardino) di una bella villa di campagna, dove sul prato viene allestito un grande triclinio e nelle vicinanze si spande la frescura di una cascata creata da una fontana e il profumo dei fiori coltivati tutt’intorno. Ma che dire di triclini realizzati in alcuni punti particolari di una scogliera, con l'acqua del mare che lambisce quasi i letti, dai quali si potevano vedere e scegliere i pesci di una peschiera sottostante per poi gustarli subito dopo la cottura?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Concludiamo ora la nostra ricerca soffermandoci brevemente sull’ambiente che nella domus romana era adibito a cucina. Si trattava di un piccolo vano affacciato generalmente sull’atrio, nel quale i soli servi provvedevano alla preparazione dei vari cibi, mentre il luogo in cui la famiglia si riuniva per consumare i pasti era il già citato triclinium. Vicino alla cucina vi erano anche i servizi igienici: l’acqua rimasta negli acquai era utilizzata per questi ultimi e bastoncini di spugna erano usati come carta igienica.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nicola Ciarcia, Italian student I liceo.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="right"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-2429934180756699968?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/2429934180756699968/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/have-good-table-manners.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/2429934180756699968'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/2429934180756699968'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/have-good-table-manners.html' title='Have good table manners'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0DCG2Y6IDI/AAAAAAAAABs/L82S3VhZMuQ/s72-c/image020.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-8446955181669912607</id><published>2010-01-03T07:48:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-03T08:07:06.503-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Some recipes</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C-75Q4dXI/AAAAAAAAABM/wQk5d03K4Z4/s1600-h/image016.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422543887547266418" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 281px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 198px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C-75Q4dXI/AAAAAAAAABM/wQk5d03K4Z4/s320/image016.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Garum&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La ricetta del garum romano rimane tuttora un mistero, forse perchè era così utilizzata che nessuno sentiva il bisogno di trascriverla. Apicio accenna soltanto che si tratta di un prodotto della fermentazione delle interiora di pesce. Dice che dalla fermentazione di queste interiora si separa un solido e un liquido che chiama liquamen. Anche le spezie erano molto utilizzate, così come l’accostamento di sapori dolci e salati, in un mix che probabilmente risulterebbe disgustoso per il gusto contemporaneo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Vino aromatizzato&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Più interessante risulta la ricetta del vino aromatizzato, che si riporta di seguito :“Siano versati in un vaso di bronzo un quarto di vino e due cucchiai di miele, in modo che, mentre il miele bolle, il vino diminuisca di volume. Scaldalo a fuoco lento; gira il tutto finché prenderà il bollore; quando comincerà a salire, trattienilo versando altro vino. Una volta freddo fallo scaldare di nuovo. Ripeti per altre due volte. Il giorno dopo lo schiumerai. Aggiungi allora 120g di pepe, poco pistacchio, cannella e zafferano, cinque ossi arrostiti di datteri; trita cinque datteri che dal giorno precedente avrai posto nel vino per farli ammorbidire. Fatto ciò versa due litri circa di vino giovane”.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fegato cotto alla brace&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_JmhBaoI/AAAAAAAAABU/nPV2yQip06M/s1600-h/image015.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422544123032857218" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 228px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 163px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_JmhBaoI/AAAAAAAAABU/nPV2yQip06M/s320/image015.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tra le tante ricette di carne, si distingue il fegato cotto alla brace: fu grazie allo stesso Apicio che il fegato da “iecur” iniziò a chiamarsi “ficatum” per via della sua abitudine di ingrassare gli animali con i fichi.&lt;br /&gt;Ingredienti: fegato di maiale, aceto, pepe, sedano, bacche di alloro, sale, pepe, budelli di maiale (o rete)&lt;br /&gt;Preparazione: tagliare a pezzetti del fegato e metterlo in una marinata composta di aceto, pepe macinato, sedano tritato e bacche di alloro. Passato del tempo, ritirare i pezzi di fegato dalla marinata, salarli, peparli, e riempirci dei piccoli budelli, avendo cura di legarli bene. Preparare una griglia unta e rovente ed arrostirci il ficatum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Salsa per polipo &lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_6TrERZI/AAAAAAAAABk/ypXkxYQSvuk/s1600-h/image023.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422544959788303762" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 209px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 229px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_6TrERZI/AAAAAAAAABk/ypXkxYQSvuk/s320/image023.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;L’ideatore è sempre Apicio: unire del pepe, del garum ed una spezia chiamata laser. Versare la salsa ottenuta sul polipo tagliato a fettine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Polpettine di carne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Amalgamare 5 hg di carne tritata di maiale o di manzo con 150 g di mollica di pane bagnata e vino, aggiungere 500 g di pinoli, del pepe ed un cucchiaio di salsa di garum. Fare delle polpette e cuocerle in un bicchiere di vino.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_bPAXWtI/AAAAAAAAABc/_aExJF6aU9Q/s1600-h/image021.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422544425959512786" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 220px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 253px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C_bPAXWtI/AAAAAAAAABc/_aExJF6aU9Q/s320/image021.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Crema di fave alla Vitellio&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cuocere delle fave e quando schiumano aggiungere porro, coriandolo e fiori di malva; poi unire del pepe appena tritato, dei semi di finocchio, il ligustico (una spezia), un po’ di garum, del vino e dell’olio. Far bollire mescolando. Al termine servire versando sulla pietanza dell’olio verde.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gustacium&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;È un antipasto la cui ricetta ci è fornita sia da &lt;strong&gt;Virgilio&lt;/strong&gt; nella sua &lt;em&gt;Appendix vergiliana&lt;/em&gt; che da &lt;strong&gt;Catone&lt;/strong&gt; nella &lt;em&gt;De agri coltura&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;In un piatto collocare dei pistacchi con delle albicocche, della frutta secca tipo noci, nocciole e datteri, quindi delle uova, dei capperi e delle ulive. Per le tartine utilizzare invece fettine di focaccia sacra (libum) cosparse alcune con un pasticcio di cacio con aglio (moretum), altre con un gramolato di olive (epityrum), altre ancora con l’ “allec”, la parte solida della lavorazione del garum.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patina (frittata di lattuga)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Tritare un ceppo di lattuga con pepe (liquamen), vino cotto, acqua e olio. Cuocere e legare il composto con delle uova: infine cospargere di pepe e servire in tavola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Patina de piris (torta di pere)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tritare pere lessate e ripulite al centro (dai torsoli) con pepe, comino, miele, vino passito, liquamen ed un po’ di olio. Dopo averci aggiunto delle uova, fare la torta, cospargerla di pere e servirla in tavola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Haedum sive agnum parthicum (capretto o agnello partico)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mettere l’agnello in forno, tritare pepe, ruta, cipolla, santoreggia, prugne di Damasco snocciolate, un po’ di laser, vino, liquamen e olio. Ancora bollente spruzzare il capretto sul piatto con dell’aceto e servire in tavola.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nicola Ciarcia&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;(CONTINUED...)&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/548504672381860024-8446955181669912607?l=comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/feeds/8446955181669912607/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/some-recipes.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/8446955181669912607'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/548504672381860024/posts/default/8446955181669912607'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://comenius0911ecap.blogspot.com/2010/01/some-recipes.html' title='Some recipes'/><author><name>virgilio</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/08210271504889648490</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C-75Q4dXI/AAAAAAAAABM/wQk5d03K4Z4/s72-c/image016.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-548504672381860024.post-878516396924703987</id><published>2010-01-03T07:38:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-03T08:23:38.576-08:00</updated><title type='text'>The Pompeian dinner</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C7lB5HUjI/AAAAAAAAAA0/NUylzVSeX3A/s1600-h/image014.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422540196191621682" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 245px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 162px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C7lB5HUjI/AAAAAAAAAA0/NUylzVSeX3A/s320/image014.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;Il pranzo pompeiano&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Un pranzo pompeiano dei più elaborati consiste in 3 parti: Antipasto: &lt;em&gt;Gustum&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Piatto principale: &lt;em&gt;Mensae Primae&lt;/em&gt;, rappresentata dalla carne arrostita o bollita, dal pollame e dalla selvaggina.&lt;br /&gt;Dolce: &lt;em&gt;Mensae Secundae&lt;/em&gt;, delineata da frutta e vari tipi di dolce.&lt;br /&gt;Il tutto era accompagnato da vino, che era bevuto in piccole quantità mescolato all’acqua.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Gustum.&lt;/em&gt; Veniva accompagnato da uova e ortaggi tra i più frequenti (asparagi, cetrioli, cavoli, zucche, lattuga, funghi); anche il pesce veniva servito come antipasto.

Infatti gli antichi romani, che lo avevano in massima considerazione, usavano conservarlo in anfore chiuse da tappi muniti di targhette (&lt;em&gt;pittacium&lt;/em&gt;) che ne garantivano l'origine e l'annata . &lt;strong&gt;Tibullo&lt;/strong&gt; pregava - &lt;em&gt;nunc mihi Gumosus veteris proferte Falernos&lt;/em&gt; - di avere subito una coppa di Falerno, vecchio e affumicato. &lt;strong&gt;Plinio&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Marziale, Orazio, Cicerone&lt;/strong&gt; ne hanno più volte tessuto le lodi. &lt;strong&gt;Petronio&lt;/strong&gt; racconta che durante la famosa cena di Trimalcione gli &lt;em&gt;haustores&lt;/em&gt;, (gli antichi sommeliers) servirono un Falerno vecchio di 100 anni.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C7upJvuRI/AAAAAAAAAA8/zhFxdgmlq0g/s1600-h/image011.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422540361349183762" style="WIDTH: 281px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C7upJvuRI/AAAAAAAAAA8/zhFxdgmlq0g/s320/image011.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;L'origine del Falerno è avvolta nella leggenda: "Bacco, sotto mentite spoglie, chiese ospitalità al vecchio Falerno; commosso dalla sua generosità fece nascere sulla pendici del Monte Massico viti lussureggianti" (&lt;strong&gt;Silio Italico&lt;/strong&gt;).

Sgocciola il sugo di cottura in un tazzone, aggiungi 2 cucchiai di amido di frumento, batti fino a che sono scomparsi i grumi, versa di nuovo sulle albicocche.

Alle raffinatezze culinarie egli dedicò la sua vita e anche tutto il suo patrimonio, peraltro assai ingente, fino a quando, secondo la testimonianza di &lt;strong&gt;Seneca&lt;/strong&gt;, si ridusse in povertà e si suicidò. L'opera a lui attribuita, &lt;em&gt;De re culinaria&lt;/em&gt; (o coquinaria), è il libro più importante di cucina scritto in lingua latina e rivela, nelle diverse modifiche e aggiunte ad esso apportate, l'evoluzione dei gusti alimentari e insieme lo stile di vita della classe dominante romana fino alle soglie della caduta dell'Impero. Un documento storico di rilevante interesse ma anche un curioso e per molti aspetti ancora attuale ricettario, studiato per soddisfare qualsiasi tipo di palato ed esigenza di dieta, che dimostra come moltissimi piatti italiani, soprattutto regionali, derivino dalla tradizione greca e romana. Il testo, accompagnato da note sulle singole ricette e sugli ingredienti citati, è preceduto da un'articolata introduzione che illustra le curiose abitudini culinarie degli antichi, inquadrandole nel contesto storico e linguistico delle diverse epoche considerate. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0CzxmZSORI/AAAAAAAAAAU/N9r0Q_n2uCo/s1600-h/image003.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422531616055638290" style="WIDTH: 133px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 261px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0CzxmZSORI/AAAAAAAAAAU/N9r0Q_n2uCo/s320/image003.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C0AmvQnSI/AAAAAAAAAAc/USShAGSACC8/s1600-h/image008.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5422531873845845282" style="WIDTH: 136px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 225px" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_uSFCQTsACaA/S0C0AmvQnSI/AAAAAAAAAAc/USShAGSACC8/s320/image008.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;«Poco si sa della cucina dell'antica Roma e dei suoi cuochi.
