And what about garlic bread? It is mostly a baguette (French bread) with garlic flavored butter (French technique) sold with an Italian flag… How many times have I had to tell people that in Italy we don't have garlic bread; we have bruschettas, we use olive oil and not butter on our bruschettas and that the whole thing about Italian garlic bread and Italian garlic oil is a big con!

So the big question is, how would people of Yorkshire feel if I start writing about Yorkshire pudding filled with banana pesto?  I bet that most of them would feel like me when I see Italian recipes completely distorted.

Then, we have the "famous & rich" celebrity food writers and one of them, very famous in the UK, presents a pizza dough containing "beaten egg". Well, the food writer got a bit confused because it is pizza dough we are speaking about and pizza dough is made without egg! 

Italyum is the last defending castle against those who want to destroy the tradition; tradition that has been built in 2000 years, since the Romans or even before. I am passionate about this and I will fight the aberrations affecting Italian food outside of Italy until my last day; this is my personal commitment.
