Lorighittas, a Sardinian pasta in the shape of an earring, has been passed down by women from generation to generation. However, the dish has remained unknown to the outside world.
洛里吉塔斯是撒丁岛的一种耳环形状的意大利面,由女性代代相传。然而,这道菜在外界却一直不为人所知。
The first recorded history of lorighittas dates to the 16th Century, in a testimony regarding the production of a peculiar pasta braided in the shape of a ring in Sardinia.
洛里吉塔斯有书面记载的历史可追溯到十六世纪,出现在一份关于撒丁岛特殊环状意大利面食的公告。
The recipe, which only calls for three ingredients – a semolina-based durum flour (a typical wheat grown in the fields of Sardinia) lukewarm water and salt – should be easy enough, I thought. It’s the actual hand rolling and twisting of the dough that takes years to master.
这个食谱只需要三种原料——一种硬质面粉(撒丁岛田里常见的小麦)、温水和盐——应该很容易。但面团整形的技术需要数年的时间才能掌握。
Today, the town of Morgongiori continues to dedicate the first Sunday of August to lorighittas in a town-wide festival called Sagra Delle Lorighittas to showcase its culinary legacy. “Now, thanks to a few good chefs, we are seeing lorighittas on menus and in restaurants around the country; they are much more common,” Mandis said. Mostly, you will see them made in very good restaurants and it’s good to see something revitalised that was all but lost.”
今天,莫尔贡焦里镇始终在名为萨格拉•德尔勒•洛里吉塔斯的全镇节日上,将8月的第一个星期日用于纪念洛里吉塔斯,以展示它的烹饪传统。“现在,多亏了几位好心的主厨,我们在全国各地的菜单和餐馆里都看到了洛里吉塔斯,比以往更普及了,”曼迪斯说。“但是大多数情况下,还只能会在非常高级的餐馆里看到它们。“很高兴看到几乎绝迹的传统又恢复了活力。”
