Archeologist in China have discover an ancient bowl of noodles preserved by mean of upside down that were at least a few thousand years.
Eating noodles with chopstick make more sense than fork since chopsticks are made of inexpensive commonly found material.
Noodle making methods and styles are countless in China.
European commoners did not start using fork for dining every meal until the 18th century is the earliest because metal were expensive.
Countries surrounding China also have tradition of eating noodles as proof eating noodles start in China at a very early stage of history.
European countries around Italy do not have tradition of eating noodles commonly because Italy start eating noodles not too long ago.
Chopsticks will be one of the most popular eating utensil, especially when we evolve to live in zero-gravity space.
Chopstick are an extension of your own fingers
European church encourage people to eat with bare fingers since God give those fingers.
Using knife and fork to cut and stab at food in front of others is considered very rude, barbaric, and uncivilized to the Chinese
Before the invention of yeast, baked bread were very hard to chew. The Chinese have a solution, that is breaking large harden bread into smaller chunks and pieces to be soaked inside a hot bowl of soup before eating it. Later the Chinese thought of just boil a string of dried noodles and pour hot soup into that bowl of cooked noodles before consumption since it is faster, more efficient in term of larger quantity for a large group, convenient, and logical when applying chopsticks.
Chinese have all sorts of ingredient when making noodles: from potatoes starch, roots of all sorts, water-chestnut, or any edible vegetables carbohydrates.
How many type of raw ingredient Italian uses when making pasta?
There's several Eastern European countries that eat dumplings. Polish eat pierogis, Georgians have their own soup dumplings. Georgian khachapuri is also similar to pizza & calzones but without tomatoes. The Turkish have lahmacun, which is also similar to pizza. Most likely the consumption of wheat originated in the ancient Middle East but various recipes could have been brought back from China & India. The Greeks & Romans did reach Asia after all.
Lmao. I didn’t know this as a fact but I have wondered in the past why ravioli looks so similar to dumplings and pasta looks so similar to the noodles. Now I know why. Dang. It makes me wonder how China was during the Marco Polo time and I can’t wait for it to get there again.
Y’all really tryin to claim everything and claim it as intellectual property😂
Pizza comes from China😂
Kimchi comes from China
For the hundredth time, who cares!!! Where does a chair come from, where does a smart phone come from, where does plastic come from, where? where? where? People lived everywhere for hundreds of thousands of years. Why do any of this matter? Gotta stop trying to live in the past. Focus on the present. Do better now!
before tomato spread from the Americas (Central and South) to the rest of the world, what does Italian cuisine taste like, especially spaghetti.
Italy as a country were created approximately less than 300 years ago, if the modern Italian peninsula before that political border happen, how come the neighboring countries doesn't have all those so called Chinese-Italian similarity?
I’m convinced. Good job.
We all know countless Chinese inventions and technology were copied by the Arabs. Through crusades, the European learn that from Arabs, and USA shamelessly stole/copyright infringement countless European technology, Japanese in turn learned from the American.
We also know Renaissance occur when "rediscovering" Arab's records of Greek and after Marco Polo trips to China and he did observed Chinese culture through the lens filtering of the Mongol
Zhuge Liang invented the meatbun
If you use chopsticks try eating spaghetti with a fork then chopsticks. Tell me which is easier? Noodles are designed for chopsticks in mind! Case closed!
Italy and China are in the same continent. Silk road reach Italy too. Definitely the influence are there
Chinese people do use cheese, in Yunnan for ex. there is goat cheese called Rubing…
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubing
Pasta came from China and the tomato came from the Americas. The Italians took both and created something special.
Italians make Escarole with garlic which looks and taste similar to Bok Choi with garlic
Ive been wondering which country eats pork more.. Italy/Spain or China
Chinese and Italians also are culturally similar. Northern China is known as much more wealthy compared to southern China and discriminate against each other, the same goes for Northern Italy and Southern Italy.. that's why Cantonese and Southern Italians both immigrated in large numbers to the US and other parts of the world.. they also value family and a clean household
A.J. Soprano, "Dad, I heard that China invented spaghetti."
Tony Soprano, "Now why would the Chinese invent something that needs a fork?"
Chinese, "Chinese don't eat noodles???"
Marco! Polo!
It all looks delish
Of course it is from China.
Flour comes from grinded wheat
Italy was always full of wheat fields since ancient times
Ancient italy didn't have rice or many other cereals and potatoes and tomatoes came way later from the Americas.
Mix flour with a bit of water (or sometime eggs), let it dry a bit and voilà, pasta!
No magic recipe, even a caveman could have come up with this idea.
BTW The Arab Moors conquered only the lower south of italy far into the middle ages, italy already had tons of different wheat fields since thousands years before.
China had been an empire long before Rome. They still survived after Rome fell. People hate to give credit to the Chinese. Rome had traded with China. The 2 most sought-after things the west tried for centuries to steal were gunpowder and silk.
Italians invented martial arts.
I recall watching an episode of Arthur as a kid where they included a fact about how pizza actually originated in China, but I've since read conflicting info about whether this was actually true or not. Although it wouldn't surprise me if it was given China's lengthy history as a civilization. And even crazier: the Chinese created the precursor to the burger with the roujiamo.
reminds me of the connection between the Sweet Potato. first came from South America, was introduced to Polynesians who traveled there, and then they brought it out to other places
Fun fact about 🇮🇹 cuisine : the first 🍅 sauce pasta recipe was written in 1886
I didn't know you went to Italy recently.
Marco
Both countries are connected by the Silk Road with Central Asia being the link to both worlds. Most countries of the mediterranean and the Far East consume rice in their diet, that's why they have strong people for their size, and can use wheat to create pasta like noodles.
It's the Silk Road that makes similarities in the culture of different civilizations.
is this why I like Italian men so much??? 😂😂😂
Mate in Australia, little Italy restaurants are cooked by Chinese chefs back in my days.
Every invention takes many steps and it’s constantly evolving. Every culture cooks it differently because of availability of ingredients and cooking methods.
Anything made from potatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, chilies, tomatoes, corn, beans, squash, pumpkins, peanuts, wild rice, pineapple, avocado, papaya, pecans, strawberries, blueberries, cranberries, sunflowers, and even chocolate did not exist anywhere else in the world but the America's prior to the 1492. So thank the indigenous people of the America's for their farming techniques if you like your Marinara sauce, your ketchup and "French" fries, your shepherds pie, your hash browns, your pumpkin pies and pumpkin spice lattes, your corn breads, your Tikka Masalas, your Egg and Tomato Rice, and the list goes on. The truth is foods have changed over the centuries from generation to generation even in places that have a long history. Also, colonialism and sheer capitalism has caused many cash crops to survive, and other crops to go extinct throughout the course of history as well. What we eat today is very different than what people ate in the 1700s and before. Having as much beef as we do today in the markets for example, is a thing unheard of just a few hundred years ago among the masses.
If you've never had Arabic pasta you should try Koshary, Egypt's national dish.
"In 2010, researchers discovered ancient remains of a man of East Asian origin in a necropolis in Vagnari, located in southern Italy (near modern Puglia), dating back to the Roman Imperial period (approximately the 1st to 2nd century CE)…. DNA analysis suggests he may have hailed from regions like China or other parts of East Asia, based on the genetic markers found."
Italy is basically the Same latitude as much of the northern half of China 🇨🇳. Also pasta is consumed throughout much of Europe, the Italian alps are very near the German Alps that eats Spätzle. Polands pieriogi is a bit similar to ravioli. Greek Orzo Pasta. Russian Pelomeni. Ashkenazi ✡️ Jewish from Lithuania & Sweden's Kasha Varnishka Bow tie buckwheat pasta. I must say that "calzone" in the picture looked a bit off. Calzones always have ricotta & mozzarella, Although meat can be optional. And one more thing, i grew up on Italian food & I've NEVER heard of an "Italian egg drop soup"🤔
just google how long wheat has been cultivated in each region and i think we can assume who inspired whom
Interestingly Little Italy and Chinatown in Manhattan is right next to each other. Irony? Maybe, but interesting indeed.
0:57 – 3:49 yes it's look like Italian food come from China, in reality some Italian food come from Asia Minor(Turkiya) especially pastries stuffed with meat. for example dumplings is Turks food as well and it's called
Manta in Uyghurs Xinjiang region in China.
Manti called in West Asia in Asia Minor(Turkiya), Azerbaijan, in Central Asia in Uzbekista, Kazakhstan.
Manty called in Central Asia by Turkmenistan, kyrgyzstan.
there was a cultural exchange between south Italy people and Asia Minor people and that increased when Antalya port in Asia Minor was used for trade between Asia Minor people and south Italy people in the 14th and 15th centuries
Dwight man food is Bread, potato and meat stew😂
How sad to have to envy and steal other people's inventions
probably similarities in climate, resources, geography that probably lead to some of the convergent inventions
Makes sense.. bunch of white people love soup dumplings and dim sums , especially flat noodles like the one that’s reminiscent of the beef bolognese 🤔🤔
I think people really undestimate how connected the old world was.
😂😂😂😂 Italian need to stop claiming SPAGHETTI 🍝 is from them ,. because Chinese restaurants is more ( menu ) with pasta!!!!😜😜😜 Compared to Italian
They almost forgot that majority of pizza ingredients is no even NATIVE ..in their country 😂😂😂😂
I'm PILIPINO 🇵🇭🍝 we also had spaghetti own version 😂😂😂
