We do. It's the anglos who don't. They've confused a separate dish, eggplant cutlets (cotolette di melanzane) with eggplant parm (melanzane alla parmigiana). A parmigiana is an unbreaded multilayered casserole. It's sometimes also unfloured

Using wikipedia and reddit as sources is not reliable.

Americans claim to have invented everything anyway (from immigrants of course) and usually make up a little story as to where and by whom.

It would blow your mind to know that many things you think is American . . . .is not!
>>
>>22195025 #
If you even read the article, the earliest mention of the dish it gives in the US is from 1953 and the earliest restaurant menu to have it that they source is 1956. It also says that it was already well-established in Kangarooland by the same year, 1953. Well-established in Adelaide and a blurb in a NYT article in the same year strongly implies Australian origin, especially considering that they didn't link any American menu from earlier than 1956.
>>22195012 #
I'm all for using AI to argue for you as long as you actually read the sources it gives. And for the love of cunt, don't use reddit as a source. Ever.
>>
>>22195034
>>22195039
Looks you typed this twice and made an edit.

I disagree with Ai giving a decent answer as it most often sources from wikipedia, which is mainly written and edited by Americans and there are so many things wrong. No doubt the Reddit sources in that article were scraped from wikipedia anyway and that is something else I found, despite have numerous sources, very often they are extracted from the same original source, so it's circular. This happens with food items and many other things too.
I take wikipedia with a pinch of salt and so should you.

Keeping it on topic ask google who invented friend chicken? It will tell you the place of origin is the USA but that's hysterical.

>>22195096
Nope because we don't eat that in Italy, either.
>>22195064
>Looks you typed this twice and made an edit.
I sure did.
AI can be useful if you know what to do with it. Most people treat it like an infallible font of knowledge and it simply isn't. It even says so.
>AI can make mistakes, you dumb, illiterate cunt
While I don't condone Google calling its users the C-word, I agree with the sentiment: surrendering critical thinking to a computer code that can neither critique nor think is supremely foolish but using it to point you in the right direction is a good way to go.
For example, even though I used to work in a library, I forgot that libraries have all sorts of weird stuff in their non-lending collections, including restaurant menus. And AI reminded me of that fact when I was telling a guy that, yes, Chinese takeout in New England have had curry chicken on menus since long before he was born despite his complaints that it's a "new thing". I posted scans of dozens of menus proving that point.
4chan being what it is, he, of course, refused to relent even with insurmountable evidence proving him wrong.
And I wouldn't have remembered to check the Boston, Portland, Springfield, Providence, Montpellier, Augusta etc library systems for those menus if AI didn't suggest it.
That's a good use for AI. It's a signpost. It's not the destination.

Did the CIA make this up?
>>
>>22195147
No. And I fail to see what an unsauced, uncheesed, unbaked northern veal cutlet has to do with a tomato sauced, cheesed, and baked chicken cutlet inexplicably associated with the culinary traditions of southern Italy by the anglosphere.
It seems like you're doing precisely what I was getting at yesterday with >>22193476
>>
>>22195154
So at what point would one of you lot lose your appetite?
The tomato sauce? The cheese? Both of them together? The pasta?
At what point of adulturation would you start fleeing in fear from a veal cutlet with tomato and cheese?
>>
>>22195160
I wouldn't. And I don't think most of us would, either. It's just not part of our traditions, is all. That's my point. I similarly wouldn't turn my nose up at a taco even though those are very much not a thing in Italy, either. Same idea. It's a foreign food. That's all.
I even spoke to a friend of mine, an American, on August 24th, who was professing his undying love for chicken parm to me. And all I could say is "I've never had it" but that I would try it so long as the sauce isn't that thin, sugary-sweet stuff italo-american tomato sauces tend to be.

She has a BA in art and a master's in marketing. Hardly the CV of anyone I would expect to call themselves a food historian. Furthermore, https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/98301501 is an article from 1945 mentioning parm in passing, saying simply that the author's young daughter's appetite for it could "put a grown man to shame" as she eats the main and a side of side of spaghetti and salad along with it. In mentioning it without an explanation of what it is, it could be inferred that the dish was already known to Australians by that point.
This claim of boiled chicken with raisins actually fits an American dish, country captain, a curried dish created in Philadelphia that became popular in the American South, where Jan O'Connell currently lives as a retiree with an inexplicably lesbian haircut and a husband.

Ragusea is a fag but he got one thing right: chicken parm is way better with the sauce on the plate underneath the chicken. The traditional way leaves the cutlet too soggy.

All italian food was invented in America. Specifically New York. Absolutely all of it. This is not a debate.

It is certainly not. Italian-American food at the time was considered exotic to Angloids like how Mexican food is now. Eventually it became accepted into the broader culture thoughever, just like Mexican food is now. Basically you people are European Mexicans.

Uh-huh. And tell me how alfredo is an Italian thing despite nobody in Italy knowing what it is, the restaurant in Italy that only anglo tourists go to that supposedly created the dish serves an entirely different thing from alfredo and doesn't even call that thing thing by that name to boot.
>European Mexicans
That's the Poles. They retile bathrooms for pocket change, just like your Mexicans.
>>22195950
The fact that wikishitia says alfredo is Italian in the same article that also says it's unknown in Italy is enough of a reason to say "yeah, nah, fuck that".

3. You write a bunch of nonsense about how Anglos enjoy it thus it must be an Anglo invention
4. I reiterate that it was indeed invented by Italian people

>nachos bel grande are Mexican food
That's the argument you're making.
>>
>>22196090
>because you say so
No, because Wikipedia says so itself. Learn to read. The article says it's Italian then also says Italians don't know what it is. How is it Italian if Italians don't cook or eat it, aren't even aware of it and the only people in Italy who do eat it are anglo tourists?

>Fettuccine Alfredo (Italian: [fettut'tʃiːne alˈfreːdo]) is a pasta dish consisting of fettuccine tossed with butter and Parmesan cheese which is melted and emulsified to form a rich cheese sauce coating the pasta.[1] Originating in Rome in the early 20th century, the recipe is now known primarily in the United States and other countries.[2][3]

>The dish is named after Alfredo Di Lelio, a Roman restaurateur who created and popularized it.[4] Di Lelio's tableside service was an integral part of the recipe's early success.[5][6][7] Fettuccine Alfredo is a variant of standard Italian preparations fettuccine al burro ('fettuccine with butter'), pasta burro e parmigiano ('pasta with butter and Parmesan cheese'), and pasta in bianco ('plain pasta').[8][9][10]

>Outside of Italy, cream is sometimes used to thicken the sauce, and ingredients such as chicken, shrimp, or broccoli may be added when Fettuccine Alfredo is served as a main course.[4][11][12] Neither cream nor other additional ingredients are used in Italy, where the dish is rarely called "Alfredo" outside of Rome.[2]

Po angielski, maybe. Pas en italien. The dish is and remains wholly unknown in the boot and the dish that gets conflated with alfredo by anglos, as they are wont to do with all Italian foods (see >>22193476), is neither called alfredo in Italy nor made the same way as alfredo sauce at all. Because, again, the dish is unknown in Italy and Italians don't eat it.
I don't know why Americans won't just take the W on this one. I moved to the US, where I live now, was introduced to the stuff and declared it delicious. I even created a more Italian version using Italian ingredients and technique. It's a credit to your otherwise culinarily incompetent country. Take it. It's yours. And it's delicious. The only reason I can imagine that you give it this ridiculous backstory is marketing.

>Modern Fettuccine Alfredo was created by Alfredo Di Lelio in Rome in the early 20th century. According to family lore, in 1892 Alfredo began to work in a restaurant located in Piazza Rosa that was run by his mother, Angelina. He cooked his first fettuccine al triplo burro ('fettuccine with triple butter' – later called fettuccine all'Alfredo, and eventually "Fettuccine Alfredo")[1] in 1907 or 1908, in what is said to have been an effort to entice his convalescent wife, Ines, to eat after giving birth to their first child, Armando.[16][17] Recipes attributed to Di Lelio include only three ingredients: fettuccine, "young" Parmesan cheese and butter.[18][6][7]

Hardly. Considering heavy cream barely exists in Italy and quite literally doesn't exist in the South. Panna fresca (fresh light cream) is itself uncommon and heavy cream might as well be a mythological construct.
