Let's Talk About Food: 20 Latin Words and Their Italian Equivalents For Food

The influence of language on Italian gastronomy is profound and multifaceted, reflecting Italy's rich culinary history and its linguistic roots in Latin. The evolution of food-related language in Italy can be traced back to its Latin origins, showcasing how language and cuisine are deeply intertwined.

Latin Influence on Italian Culinary Terms:

Many Italian culinary terms derive directly from Latin, reflecting the historical and cultural continuity from the Roman era to modern Italy. These terms often carry more than just a linguistic legacy; they embody the culinary traditions and practices that have been passed down through generations.

Evolution of Food-Related Language:

The evolution of food-related language in Italy also mirrors the country's historical interactions, including trade and conquests, which introduced new ingredients and cooking techniques. These interactions often led to the adoption and adaptation of new words into the Italian culinary lexicon.

Let's explore some notable Latin words and their Italian equivalents related to food:

Latin: "Panis" (bread) Italian: "Pane"

Latin: "Vīnum" (wine) Italian: "Vino"

Latin: "Olea" (olive) Italian: "Oliva"

Latin: "Caseus" (cheese) Italian: "Formaggio"

Latin: "Caro, Carnis" (meat) Italian: "Carne"

Latin: "Piscis" (fish) Italian: "Pesce"

Latin: "Frūctus" (fruit) Italian: "Frutto"

Latin: "Lactuca" (lettuce) Italian: "Lattuga"

Latin: "Mēl" (honey) Italian: "Miele"

Latin: "Ovum" (egg) Italian: "Uovo"

Latin: "Piper" (pepper) Italian: "Pepe"

Latin: "Sāl" (salt) Italian: "Sale"

Latin: "Allium" (garlic) Italian: "Aglio"

Latin: "Pīra" (pear) Italian: "Pera"

Latin: "Māla" (apple) Italian: "Mela"

Latin: "Cucumis" (cucumber) Italian: "Cetriolo"

Latin: "Pulmentum" (porridge, food) Italian: "Polenta"

Latin: "Acetum" (vinegar) Italian: "Aceto"

Latin: "Fābā" (bean) Italian: "Fava"

Latin: "Hordeum" (barley) Italian: "Orzo"

These examples illustrate the direct lineage of Italian culinary terminology from Latin, showcasing how the language has not only influenced but also preserved historical eating habits and food traditions. This linguistic heritage is a testament to the enduring impact of Roman culture on Italian cuisine and reflects the broader cultural and historical narratives of Italy.

arrr i hate that any restaurant that’s even remotely Latin gets lumped under the label ‘Spanish food’.

fucking Mexican food isn’t Spanish. Cuban food isn’t Spanish. Chile and Paraguay and Panama and the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico AREN’T SPAIN.

lumping all these discrete and separate cultures under the misnomer “Spanish”, because they speak Spanish is lame and inaccurate.

#i fucking love Latin food don’t get me wrong #but when i search for SPANISH food #i am looking for the cuisine of SPAIN #ESPAÑA #not just any restaurant that happens to be from a Spanish speaking culture #it’s shitty to lump all these distinct cultures together #they’re not the same just bc they share a language! #english food and usamerican food aren’t the same but we both speak english

Currently reading the plot notes for the fic, and my God it is a mortifying experience...

#I was so vague #And the whole things filled with post edits cancelling out what was already said #Also I've set plot points for myself that I now realise are really hard #For example: one of them involves a character cooking #Specifically from American Latin cuisine #Something I know very little about surprise surprise! #I bodged together a plan for the scene at the time #But now... #Well I guess that's what research is for

[alvallah]

confession : I'm only vaguely aware of plantains existing as concept from doing research for a banana post a while ago. but don't actually know what they are tbh or what you'd even do with them ?? don't think I've ever seen one irl ? hope you get some soon though

They’re slightly larger than a banana and usually darker, but look just like them otherwise. They also have a similar texture to bananas but they taste almost like potatoes. They’re one of the biggest staples in Caribbean cuisines and west African cuisines alongside rice. You can fry them, bake them, mash them, dry them into little chips (just like you can with bananas). So basically they’re like the savory version of a banana and pair well with rice, beans, chicken, pork, beef, stir fry, etc. or you can fry them on their own and dip the slices into a condiment of your choice for a snack. They’re excellent for people shopping on a budget because they’re super cheap, filling and versatile.

For your viewing pleasure:

Mofongo (Caribbean) —mashed plantains

Fried plantain slices

Plantain chips

Fufu (West African) —dough made of plantains and cassava (cassava is a plant responsible for the texture of tapioca).

Tostones (Latin American/Caribbean) —deep fried plantains

today at lunch we each were ranking our personal five different foreign cuisines (east asian, indian, mexican, italian, and usamerican), my dad ranked italian the lowest and my sister and i both said in unison: ITALIAN????? in the most shocked and lamenting voice ever. how dare he.

#the worst thing is. he cooks pasta every week #like ????? #anyways my ranking was 1.east asian 2.italian 3.usamerican 4.mexican 5.indian #i have some asteriscs about them tho #i've barely eaten indian food (i think i've been to an indian restaurant or have indian food delivered home 3 times in total) #so that's why it's the last. i just don't have a very big sample #and i wasn't gonna put usamerican food that high cause i'm very indifferent towards hotdogs and burgers #but ribs. yeah that third position is solely because of the ribs #i have no excuse for the mexican one sorry i'm just not really into it. #if i had to pick one latin american cuisine it has to be argentina #i would kill for an empanada

[old-memoria]

i promise all the brazillian youtube commenters that one day i will come to brazil

#no one asked though #but i hope you know the meme lmao #actually i really want to visit brazil not sure about moving there #its a really popular migration destination in my country now lol because no visa and nice weather food people etc #my mum's friend moved there with her family and they enjoy it though she speaks portuguese #and her husband is a well off IT guy so they are kinda privileged #it might be my eastern european mentality mentality but an average Latin American or #southern european person is much nicer that your average American or Scandinavian #what sun and tasty cuisine does to mf..... #speaking from experience I've met a few from both sides

Today was raining and I was thinking that, if Joel and Ellie manage find a house with a working oven and stove, and Joel trade some stuff for butternut squash, some canola oil, and flour. It raining and Joel baked the squash in the oven, mixed the meat with the flour, scoop into small balls and flatten it, and than fried it.

And during all this, Ellie creased her nose and ask Joel what he's cooking.

"It raining, so I decided cook some sopaipilla."

And Ellie, seeing the thr small cake browning, asking why that's relevant.

"It's a tradition," Joel will say, scooping thr last fried squash, "my father- he didn't born here, come from another country, way down south. Every time it rains, my grandparents will cook socaipllia. Why, I don't know. But they will cook it for the family. And when my father come here and have me and my brother, and when it rains, my father will get squash, baked it and than fried the meat. And I still carry on the tradition."

He doesn't tell her how he cook with his late daughter.

And Ellie will reluctantly takes a bite and instantly falls in love, already shoving one down while trying grab another. Joel will chuckle, secretly enjoying doing something he once done with his late daughter.

Few years down thr line and Ellie, grown up with Dina and her son. Once it start raing, she bake some squash, ready the meat with flour and fried it. She introduced Dina to sopaipilla, keeping the tradition alive and well.

You know, something I was thinking about.

Yeah sure conversations about the meaning of human life with an AI are cool and all but when will i have a conversation with an AI about Pokemon characters and headcanons I'm sure that will completely fry it. Can't wait.

#pasta jargon #'yes i too think the ocean can be a great stress relief if you harbor no fear of it and seek a proxy for tangible freedom' #'oh you too are a connoisseur on greek and latin cuisine well i know just the pair you gotta meet' #Don't mind me I'm in my head right now
