Regional Italian Cuisine | Part 2: South of Italy

[@thedragonsknow]

PLEASE do more of these! With different ingredients, more unusual dishes, etc. Love knowing how the history, geography, politics impact the ingredients and dishes that come out of each region. This was great but I just wanted MORE!

[@chefsabrinamancin4229]

Oh I am so glad you liked it! Thanks for letting me know. I'll plan on it :)

[@corinneskitchen]

I've been making individual videos on Sicilian dishes, emphasizing rare ones! If you're interested...

[@ThePallidor]

@@chefsabrinamancin4229 Seriously, more of your knowledge! Cooking videos are very common but videos explaining the cuisine and regions are not so common.

Yes and usual dishes

Este es uno de los programas dobre cocina italiana mas completos, didacticos y hermosos que he escuchado jamás. Felicitaciones Chef Sabrina!!! 👏👏👏

[@edwardmanfredi121]

You are really the "real deal" Sabrina. Watched part 1 the other day. I have never heard such totally competent info on cucina all'italiana ! My wife and I, are Italo American and consider ourselves italophiles. Our cooking is all original and of italian origin ( not italo american).

[@TheJonathanbastos]

Great job! Congrats! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great video. You could easily do an episode on each region!

Thanks so much! This was so informative and fun to watch.

There are many types of Sicilian pesto which I will be making videos on eventually. There was a historical trading relationship between Genoa and Sicily which introduced pesto and Sicilians came up with their own varieties.

[@NthSA]

This is amazing! Thank you so much!!! Can’t wait for the gelato video 💛

From Calabria comes the spreadable nduja salami, very delicious.

A wealth of info. worth more than many out there

[@nabiljaghdour8980]

so much information, tx a lot, great chanel

[@tbirdparis]

Great video (part 1 as well), it's basically the same information I try to tell non-Italians who have no idea about the regionality of Italian cuisine. One thing though: the fact that fresh pasta in the south often (but not always) doesn't contain egg isn't just because of historical poverty. It's mostly to do with the types of flour they had access to. In the north, they had no choice but to use a lot of egg when making pasta fresca, because durum wheat and/or semolina just doesn't grow at all in that climate. So the only way to make pasta with enough protein to hold itself together was by using egg. But this doesn't mean in the south there is no tradition of making fresh pasta with egg - it's done all the time, especially in Campania. The only difference is that since they had such easy access to durum wheat/semolina, they didn't have to _only_ make fresh egg pasta, they had the choice.

[@ajrwilde14]

Thank you!

[@Konnen-l9h]

Calabria is very famous in Brazil, maybe because of the immigration. We have a spicy sausage called calabresa, now it makes sense to me. Great video 😁

[@corinneskitchen]

The teardrop shape arancini are from Catania and the east of Sicily. The round ones are from Palermo and the west.

[@chiaralistica]

Thank you. My Sicilian friend told me to make them like a pear shape. Now I know why.

[@chrisofmelbourne87]

I adore these two videos Sabrina, brava! I am impressed by your knowledge and the level of detail you go into. It is important to know where things come from so people's identities and traditions are respected, as is differentiating a country's regional cuisines. I am a food lover - cook, gourmand and researcher, and am working on finalizing a culinary map of Greece. This video has now inspired me, maybe I will be a able to do a similar thing (about the regional cuisines of Greece and the special ingredients/dishes and their origin) one day on KZbin hehe. A big saluto from Australia and please keep making these fantastic videos! :)

[@chefsabrinamancin4229]

Hi Christopher. Thank you for your feedback! That means a lot. Wow Greek cuisine...yum! It's also so varied, fresh and delicious! I was lucky enough once to spend three weeks in Greece and I realized there's so much to it that people outside of Greece don't know about. Good luck with that map and please let me know if you ever publish it on social media or if you end up making that video. I'd love to see it :)

[@diemme568]

another good video, another 2 tons of foods that were left away... but also with some misconceptions: *(1)* Carbonara is made with the ENTIRE EGG; remember, Italians were always poor, so they wouldn't throw away the egg white, it's simply nonsense - and pasta - the dough - is also made with whole eggs, not just the yolks. Some, to make it "richer", use some yolks *in excess* , but pasta is rich enough with whole eggs without excess yolks. Use as many whole eggs as there are persons eating. *(2)* Abruzzo - a southern (or centre-south) region that is often forgotten: the typical pasta from there is "Chitarrina" (Spaghetti/Maccheroni alla Chitarra, due to the instrument used to make them) and that pasta is with eggs. Moreover, Abruzzo is probably the region where egg pasta first originated. Anyway, these "mistakes" can be pardoned, as the Author is "only" from the north - I'm from both sides, so I know better! haha

[@pepitape5863]

AMAZING PROGRAM!!!! If the first part was incredible, i enjoy this a double!!!! If ist posible, I want the recipe for Spaghetti Putanesca!! You are the best International Chef of the USA!!! Congrats!! 👏👏👏

[@salojan4571]

these videos are great. A deeper dive per region and even city would be nice. Also some info about the local wines would be interesting :)

[@michelinodellelce3415]

As a matter of fact amatriciana comes from Abruzzo. Amatrice was part of that region until 1927. The older version is called pasta alla Gricia, which is amatriciana without tomato. Only guanciale and pecorino, nothing else.

[@battlepans1927]

That’s very interesting! I’m an Italian American, my family is from Abruzzo, but my last name derives from Amatrice. It’s so cool to see how interconnected everything is.

[@bruttosporcoecattivo]

Emigration, perhaps? And also because it's delicious

I enjoyed your video so much. I am a foodie tourist and will visit Italy in December. I will arrive in Milan first then from there not sure whether to visit Bologna or Genova before heading to Rome. I thought of ending my Italian trip in Sardinia but after watching your video I might rather shift my itinerary to Sicily. What are your thoughts? Thanking you in advance

Da quando il Lazio è sud Italia?

[@pompei1968]

Da quando c'era il regno delle due Sicile

[@francescob3722]

​@@pompei1968 il Lazio apparteneva allo Stato della chiesa che si estendeva fino alla Romagna in nord italia. Con il sud ci confina ma non è mai stato culturalmente, economicamente e geograficamente sud Italia. In questo video non esistente più il centro Italia che ha una sua identità diversa dal sud Italia.

[@mrbushlied7742]

I'm a UK/US dual national of 100% Italian ancestry. Many people of Italian extraction have ancestors from different regions of Italy. So, the Italian cuisine prepared by their families is already a mixture of different regions. This does not make it any inferior or less Italian than what you get in Italy.

[@chefsabrinamancin4229]

My family is a big cocktail as well (like I like to refer myself) and I love that about it. I love mixed cuisines and cultures, most of the best things in life come from mixes. By no means did I try to say that mixes would be inferior. With these videos I tried to give people a very good idea about how there is not a single "Italian Cuisine" but many depending on where you go. I tried to show people how geography, history and culture have shaped the dishes of every region. It is impossible to show every dish of every region because the cuisines are so vast, but that's the beauty of it. Even dishes within each region will change because every family gives its traditional touch, and this is beautiful as well. I'm sure you ate really deliciously growing up :)

[@pompei1968]

The south of italy is Napoli..before 1861 it was the Kingdom of the two sicilies or Kingdom of Napoli and Napoli being the capital city

Gli Arancini non sono fatti con gli riso avanzato. No. Per i siciliani potrebbe essere offensivo dirlo.

[@chefsabrinamancin4229]

It's not offensive, that's how it started and that's the beauty of many dishes all over the world. Many dishes have been born out of necessity and they become staples of different cuisines that we all love. Obviously now a day when people and restaurants make arancini, they make the rice specifically for it and it is super delicious as well. I love arancini, especially on the boat that takes you from Catanzaro to Messina :)

[@lenase7396]

@@chefsabrinamancin4229 The ferryboat to Messina leaves from Villa San Giovanni (Reggio Calabria) not from Catanzaro. Regarding your assumption that arancini were made with leftover rice can I have a source? On the wiki page there isn any trace of what you said. Also with do have pesto in the south 'pesto alla trapanese' made with almonds,tomato,garlic,pecorino and oil.
