Otello

These crunchy, deep-fried artichokes are a classic Roman side dish that originated in the oldest Jewish community in all of Europe, Rome's Jewish ghetto &mdash; hence the moniker alla Giud&iacute;a. First, artichokes are trimmed and peeled down to their tender hearts, then they are marinated for a few hours in lemon water, and finally seasoned with salt and pepper before being fried in olive oil until crispy. The best variety of artichokes for preparing this dish are Romanesco artichokes. This cultivar from the coastal region northwest of Rome is harvested between February and April, making carciofi alla Giud&iacute;a a springtime staple in numerous trattorias and eateries in the city's old Jewish quarter.

Carciofi alla Giudía

Bu yemeği ya ben anlamadım, ya da ustam biraz beklemiş yağda mı kızarttı naptıysa nerden tutsam anlam veremediğim bir tat oldu. Baska bir yerde baska birinin tavsiyesiyle belki yine yerim ancak bu noktada neresi yeniyor neresi yenmiyor çözemedim. Hoş baya da didikledim ama yok.
