LAMPREDOTTO

I would like to change a little bit the topic of my blog and so I would like to present you the typical dish of Florence – LAMPREDOTTO. It is made from the fourth and final stomach (from the abomasums) of the cow. The name of the peasant dish derived from Italian LAMPREDA what means abundant of waters in Arno River. This sandwich was a typical dish of poor people and it was already present in the 15th century.

Lampredotto is cooked in water with tomato, onion and parsley and usually served inside a crusty sandwich which before has been dipped in the broth and then the consumer have to decide the condiment between: salt and pepper, salsa verde – green sauce based on parsley and garlic or hot chilli sauce. We can also eat the Lampredotto with pasta and tomato sauce. 

Nowadays, the Lampredotto is a typical street food and it is still widespread because of the presence of many stalls.


Even if it looks horrible I make you sure that the Lampredotto is very delicious.

  3. And what about the first, the second and the third stomach? Do Italians do something from them? Anyway, I'm not sure if I want to try it.

  4. Nadine, your blog feels deserted and forgotten! I'm sure there is something apart from a cow's stomach that you can write about ;) Don't wait any longer!
