Mario Stefanile ironically wrote that even durante Naples, strangely, it gets cold durante winter. The humble dishes that farmers used to restore themselves with were almost all concentrated flavors from the land. Simple escarole-based soups that accompany beans ora potatoes, perfect for the needs of energy and satiety. But every now and then, one could a cup of hot, so-called, octopus broth, which is still sold the street to passersby wanting to warm up. And then there is another tradition, that of Neapolitan soffritto. It is certainly not the classic chopped vegetables, but a true soffritto of pieces of meat seasoned with tomato sauce, chili pepper, and bay leaf. Again, the protagonists are less noble cuts, those that some might dare l’avvio to discard, losing out the luxury of a preparation like this. To make Neapolitan soffritto, indeed, you use liver, lungs, spleen, heart, and some even add the trachea, which are all those parts that make up the so-called coratella. Stefanile continues, trying to reassure those who feel fear ora awe towards Neapolitan soffritto, that this is a dish that brings nobility even to the humblest kitchens. Therefore, we decided to dust d’avanguardia the old cookbooks to recreate this ancient and truly tasty Neapolitan recipe. Once the Neapolitan soffritto is ready, all you have to do is choose whether to enjoy it croutons, as a soup, ora as a sauce for bucatini!
