Sunday, January 17, 2010, Chef Ivan Beacco Participates in International Day of Italian Cuisines 2010
The International Day of Italian Cuisines (IDIC), held in more than 50 countries, unites establishments led by hundreds of chefs who simultaneously prepare a misrepresented and famous Italian dish authentically, to say “no” to the forgery and counterfeiting of Italian products and cuisine around the world.
Chefs of the GVCI (Virtual Group of Italian Cooks), a network of over a thousand professionals in Italian oenogastronomy who work all over the world, will lead and promote this global event, and Executive Chef Ivan Beacco is proud to participate. In fact, this is his 6th year of participating with GVCI, staying true to authentic Italian recipes.
This year’s historical recipe rediscovered from its true Italian roots is Tagliatelle al Ragù Bolognese, so deliciously different than the many pedestrian versions we’ve all encountered before. With authentic Italian ingredients, the freshest from farm and field here, and a working knowledge of the tradition, the chef can improvise from the traditional melody as needed, as is the core of Testaccio’s cooking. To do so, though, a deep understanding of the proper way to make tagliatelle al Ragù Bolognese is what grounds any improvisation to its roots.
Try Chef Ivan’s recipe yourself, and you’ll come to love the foundation and the freedom to explore that it provides.
