Il carpaccio
The name of the dish comes from the painter Vittorio Carpaccio, who lived between 1400 and 1500.
It was invented by Giuseppe Cipriani in the last century. He was a Venetian business man and the owner of Harry’s bar in Venice.
Cipriani created it for his client, the Countess Mocenigo who could not eat cooked meat. The recipe intended to spice up a slice of raw meat with Olive oil ,lemon and Parmesan.
The plate was renamed “Carpaccio” because at that time an exhibition of the painter was being held in Venice.
The dish has become famous and be in the restaurants’s menu all over Italy. Today we can find it with different types of raw meat and condiments.
