Italiaanse vervalsers olijfolie gepakt

ROME - De Italiaanse politie heeft een bende vervalsers opgepakt en bij diverse invallen 2000 ton ‘foute’ olijfolie in beslag genomen. De acht verdachten deden het voorkomen alsof de olie van Italiaanse olijven was gemaakt, maar in werkelijkheid zaten er vruchten uit Spanje en Griekenland in verwerkt.

De olie had op papier een waarde van zo'n 13 miljoen euro. De invallen en arrestaties van de operatie 'Mamma Mia’ waren in de regio’s Calabrië en Apulië.

Gesjoemel met olijfolie komt vaker voor in Italië. Vorig jaar begon justitie in Turijn tegen diverse producenten een zaak omdat ze minderwaardige olie aan de man brachten als olie van de eerste persing.

Chi ha parlato di Prosecco nelle bottiglie di Moet&Chandon taroccato?

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws

La mente della truffa era di Valdobbiadene, le etichette le stampava una tipografia di Napoli e gli imbottigliatori erano dei nomadi del padovano. E nella bottiglia di falso Moet & Chandon, cosa c’era al posto del francesissimo Champagne? Secondo le analisi della Guardia di Finanza, le 9.000 bottiglie sequestrate contenevano dell’onesto vino bianco spumantizzato, tant’è che non verranno distrutte, ma regalate ad alcune associazioni locali (?).

Watch the Destruction of Pompeii by Mount Vesuvius, Re-Created with Computer Animation (79 AD)

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws

A good disaster story never fails to fascinate — and, given that it actually happened, the story of Pompeii especially so. Buried and thus frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, the ancient Roman town of 11,000 has provided an object of great historical interest ever since its rediscovery in 1599. Baths, houses, tools and other possessions (including plenty of wine bottles), frescoes, graffiti, an ampitheater, an aqueduct, the “Villa of the Mysteries“: Pompeii has it all, as far as the stuff of first-century Roman life goes.

See on Scoop.it - La Cucina Italiana - De Italiaanse Keuken - The Italian Kitchen

La ricetta degli gnocchetti con la ricotta pomodoro e mozzarella è il primo piatto di oggi 3 febbraio 2016 di Anna Moroni per La prova del cuoco. Sono un po’ simili agli gnocchi alla sorrentina ma ci sembrano anche più golosi. Antonella Clerici assaggia e suggerisce di aggiungere un pizzico di sale in più perché con la ricotta nell’impasto gli gnocchi possono risultare un po’ dolci. Non ci resta che provar subito questi gnocchetti con la ricotta pomodoro e mozzarella di Anna Moroni, la sua ricetta di oggi da La prova del cuoco, gustosa e facile da fare.

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws

The Irish low-cose airline, Ryanair, lambasted the Italian government on Tuesday over new passenger tax hikes, saying it will now be forced to close two of its bases in Italy and cut 600 jobs.The company said in a statement that 16 flight routes would also be lost as a result of the “illogical decision of the Italian government to raise municipal taxes further”.From January 1st, the government raised taxes by about 40 percent (from €6.50 to €9) for each passenger departing from Italy in order to subsidize a fund set up for pilots laid off as a result of the merger between Alitalia and Abu Dhabi’s Etihad.David O’Brien, Ryanair’s Chief Commercial Officer, said the Italian government was “shooting itself in the foot”, especially after a record year for tourism in Europe.
