Yeah, no. Designation of origin is bullshit. Any fucker can make Italian pizza

Mixed Medshit background here. I've got a few to mention.

Fried bitter peppers in tomato sauce. Outside of a few areas in the Mediterranean, the peppers used to make it are entirely unknown and unheard of. They're similar to shishito peppers, but they're bitter-tasting. In the US, Italian immigrants have come to substitute American long sweet peppers for the bitter peppers to make the dish, but the taste is wholly dissimilar (sweet vs bitter).

Pizza crust sandwiches (pannuozzo, pic related) aren't really a thing outside of Naples and its suburbs. Basically, bake some pizza dough in an ovular shape, split it, fill it with shit and bake it a second time. It's weird that they're not popular outside the area because literally every single pizza place on earth has the ingredients needed to make it.


Italian fish sauce is not made anywhere else except Cetara, a suburb of Salerno and Naples.

Outside of peoples homes in Jounieh and its suburbs, these chickpea flour crepe-like flatbreads (the name of which I forgot completely because I don't speak Durkadurka) aren't really known. There are similar flatbreads from other places, but they're either made with some other blend of flours besides chickpea and wheat flours and/or are made from fermented batter and are therefore sour. It's spongy and riddled with holes. The most well-known flatbreads similar in preparation and texture are injera or laxoox, but is not fermented nor made with amaranth/teff/quinoa. It's most similar to baghrir, but baghrir isn't really known outside of Algeria. Unlike baghrir, though, the one I'm talking about is more often eaten with salty food rather than sweet.

Speaking of flatbread and because it's Passover right now, among the native Italki Jews of southern Italy (not the Ashkenazi and Sephardi newcomers), matzo is a soft, wrap-like bread similar to Turkish dürüm or Mexican tortillas de trigo. Since Italki Jews are so few now, this sort of matzo is sure to die out soon.

Dude you can get matzo practically anywhere in the world. Granted you either have to go to a ver Jewish place or wait until the festivities. There are even some brands sold at supermarket's

>>7600454
Work on your reading comprehension there, buddy-boy.

>>7600459
Or maybe you can clarify you are talking g about a special kind of matzo and even go as far as to tell us how it's different other than being made by a special kind of people?
I mean I love my little sister but when brings cookies she made at school I don't tell everyone she invented a new dish

in case it wasn't clear to your 'tism-tier brain, that last bit about italian matzo was obviously a bonus tidbit and not part of the can't-be-made-elsewhere theme of the thread

I brought up the Italian matzo as an aside, sorry if that gunked up the thread. I guess I shouldn't have mentioned panuozzo, either, since I even said it can be made literally anywhere (though it isn't for some reason).

Anyway, it's funny you say that because most of our native Jews have left to live in Israel while we're getting all the Ashkenazim from Israel moving to Italy in droves. Here's the funny bit, though: in Israel, they don't make the Italian-style matzo. It's just not prudent for them to make it because the Ashkenazim won't buy it since it's not the crunchy cracker matzo they're used to and there aren't enough of a concentrated number of Italki or Romaniote or B'nai Roma Jews in Israel to make large-scale production of Italian-style matzo profitable. Jews of the various Italian/Greek rites living in Israel just use Ashkenazi matzo now.
The Ashkenazim living in Italy now outnumber the native Jews, so the people who used to make and sell traditional Italian-style matzoh don't do it anymore because there aren't enough native Italian Jews to make it profitable.

And before you say anything about the chickpea crepes, most countries don't grow chickpeas and the vast majority of them that do don't grind them into flour, so to make those Maronite crepes in most places would require an imported item (chickpea flour) to make.
