Question

As a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians.

Question

Post by Conti832 »

As I have posted before my family and the Italians in my Hometown come from a Area South of Rome towns such as Pofi ,Ceccano,Castro Dei Volcsi.They have a thing going with Italians in another nearby town who come from another part of Italy about making sausage.

We make it using orange peels and in this area it is known as Sharpsville sausage.Is this a regional thing?

Liver sausage made with fruit peels is common in the area you mention. It is also very good. I imagine it is regional. It varies even from town to town. In Sora they even use dried grapes for one version.
