Oltre al #risotto Un altro piatto che ADORO è il baccalà mantecato! Il termine baccalà deriva dal portoghese bacalhao (i portoghesi commerciavano con Genova e Venezia), derivato dal fiammingo bakkaliaum. #italianfood #originofwords Buono!!
The verb mantecare comes from the Spanish word for butter: manteca, mantequilla. The English butter and the Italian burro all come from the Greek boutyron ("cow-cheese"), Latin butyrum. Butter is butìro in Veneto and butér in Emilia.
