Bún bò huế, zuppa vietnamita

Bún bò huế, zuppa vietnamita.
Una delle zuppe più tipiche del Vietnam, originale della città di Hué. Noodles di riso, manzo e tante spezie.
Questa era la colazione che la mia Dao ha preso ieri mattina. Decisamente non nel mio stile.
Devo dire che la zuppa in se era piacevole ed i gusti non erano troppo forti. Ovviamente prima di aggiungere il peperoncino…
Un’altra cosa che non ha poi incontrato il mio gusto era quel pezzettino più violaceo, che io credevo fosse tofu, che in realtà era sangue solidificato.
Comunque non ho disprezzato l’assaggio!

La cucina vietnamita è l’espressione dell’arte culinaria sviluppata in Vietnam. I piatti tradizionali del Vietnam sono almeno cinquecento, testimoniando in tal modo l’estrema varietà della cucina del paese. Tra i prodotti tipici e maggiormente diffusi vi è il riso. Rilevante è anche la cucina cinese che ha influenzato notevolmente quella locale.

Blood sausage or berodo, the recipe

Il sanguinaccio o berodo

Blood sausage or berodo.
Blood sausage, which is called in many ways (here in Liguria it is called berodo) and prepared in many ways, is a preparation that, as far as I know, is made throughout the non-Muslim world: it is nothing more than a way to recover pig's blood, a precious source of proteins, fats and other ingredients...
I have always tasted this product when I found it, and I have found excellent ones both when made with dark chocolate and when put in small casings and mixed with chilli pepper in Mexico.
However, when you buy a blood sausage, it has actually already been prepared by the butcher and then subjected to an initial boil.
The fresh blood must immediately be mixed with milk and you must continue stirring to prevent it from coagulating. At this point the further preparation process depends on the habits, cultures and traditions of the places and countries.
Years ago, I saw the blood sausages prepared by Lindo, a local pork butcher who was called by the families who, often with sacrifice, raised and then slaughtered a pig. For me, however, the absolute master of the preparation of salami and blood sausages was Mr. Lino Marcenaro and his two assistants: Franco and Carlo who later became a great traveler of exotic countries and who is one of my oldest and dearest friends.
The blood, still fresh, is mixed with fresh milk, continuing to mix with spices, salt and pine nuts, which must be abundant even if expensive; naturally I do not know the doses which must be secret. The blood sausages, just closed with the same technique used for sausages, must be put to boil to have the first cooking. This is how we find them at the butcher's.
At home we cook them simply boiled for a few minutes but decorated by mixing some side dishes from Swiss cuisine: sandy potatoes (cut into wedges, blanched in water and then sautéed in butter and breadcrumbs), slices of Rennet apples (peeled, cut into wedges and then slowly cooked in water slightly acidulated with lemon and sprinkled with cinnamon) and finally with sautéed cabbage (cut not too finely and cooked with a little oil, salt and sprinkled with white wine and, at the end, with a drop of vinegar).
Enjoy your meal!

Christ in the Pieve of Santa Maria in Arezzo

Christ in the Pieve di Santa Maria in Arezzo.
Although the church of Santa Maria della Pieve contains works of even greater value, my curiosity was attracted by this rather kitsch Christ, who seems to convincingly show his wounds and his blood made of red rope.
Apart from this slightly pulp curiosity, this thousand-year-old church, which is located in the center of Arezzo, houses works of great taste, more or less ancient, as well as the remains of Giorgio Vasari (born in Arezzo) and his wife Nicolosa.

Florentine steak and French fries

Florentine steak and French fries.
A splendid Florentine steak with some French fries “soaked” in the “juice” of the freshly cut meat!
While I’m at it, I’ll also tell you that I ate it at the trattoria “Dae figge du Baratta” in Sestri Levante which I will tell you about in another post in the next few days.
