Why Agrodolce?
Well, as you can see on top of this blog, I have made some changes on my blog title.
At first, I want to change it to "Bittersweet", but well this idea came out and I just typed the new one, which in my opinion, is a better name, though... describing how the life goes on, sometimes sweet, sometimes sour or savoury.
L'Agrodolce.
Agrodolce is a traditional sweet and sour sauce in Italian cuisine. Its name comes from "agro" (sour) and "dolce" (sweet). Agrodolce is made by reducing sour and sweet elements, traditionally vinegar and sugar. Sometimes, additional flavorings are added, such as wine, fruit, or even chocolate. The sauce is thought to have been brought to Sicily by the Arabs. It can be high in fat, sodium, cholesterol and sugar, used for lamb, and served over rigatoni or wide noodles, such as pappardelle. Though the term "aigre-doux" could refer to any sweet and sour sauce in French cuisine, a gastrique is very similar to agrodolce.
