We are on a voyage of Discovery but with jar on board they all thing could be a disaster don’t look at me but don’t Worry it will be fantastic just as long as there is plenty to eat lovely We are traveling through the region called Lazio on our way to the capital Roma we are on the journey to find out what it means to be Italian man today very nice I like it Lazio is fa fertile and rugged and the living here is

Tough in the old days men like Fast card and fancy women but they kept their wise under lock and key is it still the same today don’t you think there would be much action here in the winter time well I don’t know but I believe because this

Is very small village yeah here the woman is still woman yeah and the man has to be the man because otherwise how can you do it you mean a man have to be a man yeah like me W what do you mean it’s just fantastic wonderful Sun

Here look at view this is valin fra home of the scani family they have been farming sheep in this parts for over 100 years mama is in the kitchen and alandro the eldest son is out in the valley tending the family H I wanted to know alandro was like the tough Farmers I remember from when I was young I like to have him as bodyguard would be fantastic I remember men in my family where men like alandro when they come home there was and R served and revealed every morning at 5:00 she get

Up because s was very early to work at 5:00 to make him the coffee that’s unbelievable see you l s for he comes in and if she would like to sleep a little bit longer said my goodness you are still in bed where’s my coffee that’s quite something alesandro expects lunch a

Large lunch to be on the table at one without fail to be sure this happens the women must work together his sister Maran his wife Sonia oh yeah and of course mama and no one can eat until alandro gives the signal it’s a 4ing lunch for a hardworking Man meets

Home prod Pino Romano Cheese and Mama’s homemade Fet speee incidentally I just heard that the mother never comes to the table only for the dessert because she has to serve in the kitchen she has to prepare how is it the pasta they I say it almost feels like the good old days when everyone knew where they Stood man could be a man and a woman could be a woman in Lazio they have a saying pansa the man with a belly is a man of Substance blood my God here in valin fra is the super size models that pull the Crowds but did you see he has the biggest stomach I think every year Alexandro and His Friends host a competition to see which of them can gain the most weight in an hour it’s a badge of honor and it’s time to get weight Kil Alexandro is the heavyweight champion but last year’s Victory cost him a trip to the hospital with chronic stomach Pains wow oh my God so this is only the anti pasor so to say another one okay I never thought that a man can eat so much I find it disgusting just like feeding animals Alfredo want to beat Alexandro because last year he was first and this year he will be

First the the feeling is to be strong and it’s not just the sense of being greedy and no he is being strong the women are very busy making the next Lord of a pasta seeing man eating make them very excited the cheese to make you feel strong also very V you Said you are need a strong man this is what he’s all about hey Mara now the action is really Hing up this time is cater paper pasta with a salty peino cheese and far Pepperino look at that next the food of Emperors and trails this is byata is the entr of a young lamb that hasn’t eaten the grass yet so the entr is full of milk and they brace it a fist fit for Cesar 1 hour and five course is later the food has all gone Antonio first it’s time to weigh the Hefty Giants of Jano go away from I know you now you put always your foot on my thing I don’t now nobody at the way in ailio registered 65 kilos 170 kilos 5

Kilos so 5 kilos more next up Alfredo alesandro’s biggest rival will he take his crown how many3 is one stone of food tell me how do you feel good good all eyes are on last year Champion Alexandro that’s 4 kilos less than Alfredo the main mountain has been toppled the winner alred Alfredo come in alfredo the ladies they like it they do love it they love it they you see the eyes the wife girls they look to they’re really very proud lovely Village that’s

Good no I really enjoy good memory good people a good memory good food Yeah The kind of pasta the big men were eating is the kind that made Italian cooking famous real food for real Man what do you making I want to show you how to make the butini alatri amri is a little town near Rome and from there comes this very simple but one recipe locals will use Guan chal or Pig Chek for this delicious pasta sauce but

The ice petta or lean bacon will do just as Well I fry my Panetta with the onion and then put a little bit of wine we can put a little bit of wine to stop and you loosen up a little bit the sticky stuff that is on the bottom which is very good for the taste hey is called de glazing oh really

Y add a little pinch of salt and let it simmer can I give you a little hand can I help you a yeah you can be only a little hand the big one next you chop four fresh tomatoes so more basic than this sauce here couldn’t be yes it’s fantastic and

You prepare the sauce in advance then you cook the pasta and you put the pasta with the sauce and bobano what bobano what Bob me Uncle usually you say Bob you uncle and say Bob me Uncle okay okay all right the smell is quite wonderful yes

Now I need a little bit of chili for our I like it thought I use the seeds as well because there is the power the matcho then you want to get the proper Stu can I put them a little bit more for me to be a match stronger that’s enough just for me

Go now for this L I got butini you know what butini it’s got the little hole right through in the middle mid is just to make it lighter you know when you bite in the spaghetti is quite sort of hard hard s alente here you have a little bit softness

And butin is very much Ro napoi all of the Sal now that it’s boiling we take how much pasta well this is my portion another we don’t have any much SCE just in case okay just in case you put the pasta like this and now it cooks for about 8

Minutes no Italian pasta dish is complete without a salad so I have something very typical of Rome first I must remove the outside leaves to reveal the little jams within that’s called pel This is a plant of chory in that sense that they are little sort of

Shoots now what I need jar is those to be cut in very very small strips you can me always way fantastic job to do it’s pretty obvious you see like this okay and ah okay so what do you do with that so simple yeah okay then because you are so clever

Do the rest now the pasta is cooked in my opinion so I never never never take the pasta and put it under the cold water as many people do because you wash away away all the goodies oh that’s wonderful shaking a little bit Yeah shaking shaking Shakeen Shing a

Bit the Pella has a strong flavor and needs a strong dressing so I am pounding up garlic and chies olive oil and a little white but vinegar just tell me when when just in case yes a few freshly peaked mint leaves are then added and this classic Roman salad is

Done you want the more olive oil on it no it’s enough there is only one way to prove It the life fresh nice crunchy everything you wish from a salad traditional food the Roman way finished off with a strong Peino jaro perfect food for Bania what is he back Oris in other words of food of wine every possible pleasure the right food for us that’s unbelievable Antonio lovely refreshing of Pella this is so it’s very match of food you know I feel very healthy very good god yes very matcho very Mucho we are back on the the road to the capital the great city of Rome but uh before we take on the Gladiators there’s just time for a little man’s snack it’s a local speciality what is it what is it h me the cop is a wonderful H me can I have a

Sound yeah you can Here it gives you enormous power traditionally the Italian male had two functions to eat and to make Love when did your really manhood start general well I don’t know I can’t remember but I know uh when I was the age of 13 14 well I can beat you there because I was 11 were you talking about 11 where doesn’t matter everybody knows we Italians are the world’s best Lovers maybe that is because we are not afraid to taste the food of love we are visiting a butcher who provides a special service for his gentleman customers it’s more horse meat and a very delicate cut I know you will buy slices of testicle of O just like this a

Time your mother going with somebody else what your father would have done killed them yeah probably in a marriage it was allowed to kill your wife divor Al Italiana divorce Italian style because if the wife was cold going with somebody else he could kill her and

It was fine mhm it’s enough for you yeah all right so they have to now cook until they start to caramelize the edges it mean that they cooked before I do The Omelette meanwhile J would you be so kind to fry the pepperon Chini lovely they Peppers that they are sweet and you

Cook them all as they are all of them and they need just to be fried just a little bit on each side and then you eat them with a seed because they’re all sweet however one % every hund of those one can be hot din

Just have to you to find it I got to get yeah you know when you had this sort of unpleasant antisocial behavior of the garlic is when the garlic is RW so the garlic has to be cooked to be digestible put the salt not too much now TOS a little

Bit yeah they’re ready Anton now yeah those are ready is yeah okay wonderful exactly as they should be now I crack a dozen eggs into a bowl and beat them Well ready Antonio almost not yet because now it comes the V to give more flavor V One vinegar at this stage is like an a sweet and sour yes sweet and sour I guess this is already good as it is as a sort of side dish with grilled

Meat add the beaten eggs to the pepper fried with vinegar and when I see that is not too moist anymore then I leave it to build the lovely crust can I start to try one of these some oh yes in fact I would like to have one as

Well did you find the the the strong one the hot one yes I have yes it doesn’t stick anymore now we can turn it the other side I don’t want to toss it like that because otherwise it can stick there Anton you you can

Never TOS that one you see how big it is oops oops Yeah wonderful look at this look at this yeah now one two three Jano look at this what happened here oh there we are slice now well Done and I suppose this is a white wonderful vegetarian Meal perfect oh let’s have a look stand there all this gaming stupid thing we go too long come on let’s go Mighty room where boys become men and every building is a monument to M the power come on Bo yeah Power of the Caesars the power of the popes and that

Will Co the Gladiators oh my God that is the colos don’t overtake me don’t stand thereo for Roman combat these days you’re going to take to the street come on come on move up move up move up if you can’t be a match of driving room where can you be One finally what the hell you been the Desa look like a ripe Cherry you look very well the bread Antonio yes that is color is a Ferrari Color it is a Ferrari Color when he grown up the best Ferrari will be Ferrari in ancient times Romans showed

Off the well with Lish Banquets they never serve the same thing twice when Italians come here they don’t do the sides they come to Eat and volete is the right place to start Antonio the smell jaro this is the shop of my heart over the years Brothers Emilio and clao have built up a rich hord of gastronomic Treasures Dr in wine B wine this is almost a religious act yeah oh Yeah foros a cheese mat in Earth that’s fantastic it looks Fantastic and now for someo cavalo it’s from Sicily and has a secret ingredient what is inside here what is inside here no no I said inside is a surprise what can be more delicious than cheese infused with another Rome was not built in a day neither was the reputation of the typical Italian

Male but these days there are those who would undo the work of centuries man ask wife the association of Italian House Husbands would like to see all men do women’s work apparently they do all the services that the woman used to do in the home so

They can do my shirt and your shirt you cook as well I cook are you cook yes that’s good are you sweeping yeah but washing washing for me it’s something you know that that I always felt time in Italian I can be anywhere around the

World but I’m a man I always wanted to be a macho little bit much remain because working me and working my wife we have more time to make make love this is what I love I think I will start to do that as well Antonio I can imagine when I left

Italy you know wearing apron for a man or just having a broom for me inside the house was a taboo I myself I got plenty of times to make a lava so I don’t have to sweep the floor let’s go come on let’s go to it I want to be a macho man

I want to be a strong B I want to be yeah go janaro but maybe the oldfashioned idea of the match man is on the way out and not every man is lucky enough to have a woman to run around after him divorce is up by 70% that’s one marriage terminated every 33

Minutes these men are learning to look after themselves for the first time in their lives so I had to redefine completely my figure as a man as a person as an Italian as a [Laughter] father well TV chef Fabi campoli is teaching fellow divorcees of the Dead Pride movement some fairly basic

Recipes has learn to cut to chop like [Applause] [Laughter] [Applause] this gentlemen I would like to tell you one thing I have been divorced three times to a what what you do now I learn cooking beef before I was [Laughter] married but what these guys really want

Is to be able to cook for their kids when they get them on their weekly visit and now you have to prepare food for those children yeah uh especially for my first uh daughter every week you see your daughter twice or three times a week so you cooked or something and you

Try to actually be like it’s one big family yeah you how many children B one one yes J and this AIG GL that’s wonderful to hear that a father do say my big love and a good opportunity for us to express love for our children what is more interesting

For me is to see that in Italy where it looks like the social element is going apart is not they are coming all together and the food brings together that should be an example for all of the world world yes app agreed with you that Antonio this man needs help so I am

Showing them my favorite atti dish so they can make themselves very popular B junor flowers past Lina another little bit without Janar what could I do without where are you say so this is the message to every man that doesn’t know what to do take an

Atio cut in slices clean it already put the soldier now thank you and uh put a little egg a little flour in oil and you have a lovely appetizer to Salt the stuff here anything that is fried actually you put the salt in the B first so that the

Better give the flavor and you don’t add the salt afterwards which is destroy the entire [Laughter] crispiness Ric it looks fantastic some of them they have been abandoned by the wife some they abandoned their wife but the result is that they have children and those children probably they love their papa

And then they want something for them a sense of love that’s all in my opinion everybody that produces food produces love Simone do you think you can cook this simple dish what I think so yeah I will try as I as I told you I will try

To get Arty chokes tomorrow and maybe I will try to do it and what you going to call him Anton AR I will talk Papa AR Papa arop male Fellowship is a good thing and we were glad to be part of it beautiful wow look at this fantastic fantastic but

Celery why do you chop you so small because I want all this almost melted in a wi and I’m good again the celery you do exactly the same the vegetables go in a dish big enough to hold the beef along with black pepper and couple of biley so you give

Me a crown and now you do destroy just a little bit one and two I don’t want the mid to Fall to Pieces when it’s cooked do it so I tie it up with a nice clean piece of String pull it turn around it through one fantastic 1 2 3 four and then all the meat come on Stay Together M it looks beautiful yes and then you put them all inside M okay two spring of raspberry one and two yes I love the noise you must leave the m to marinate

Overnight or at least for 12 hours and do not use cooking wine the better the wine the better the taste and this dish is Fit For A King but Anton is hungry he cannot wait so I’m cooking this piece without marinate it will still taste a fantastic oh let me show my

M you are really a m Chef first we fry the meat to seal the juices then pour all the marinade in a cooking pan and when it comes to the boil return the beef add a little bit of salt I didn’t want to put the salt in the

Marinade because the salt make the meat tough so if I put in now I can balance just right slowly slowly slowly I going to turn it down and cook it for about 2 hours m what you going to do for 2 hours I I want you to peruse actually what this sell is About goodness 1950 1950 yeah this one which one this holder this glass so I put them inside the botle yeah like yeah that’s wonderful I hope that it tastes as it looks J oh you make it really now it is cooked tender full of the wine fit for the

King look how soft it is and only dissol It it’s so drunk whatever you do do it quick because I’m hungry oh yes yes a little bit more a little bit more ah just a little bit of this lovely juice which is on top Yum Yum Yum with a nice bit slice of bread Antonio thank you are you on the Side you now what you are the emperor did you think I deserve it y I am glad now that I find the real man in Rome ah thank you of course there is real solid food available in Rome made by a real solid man you just have to know where to

Look ah pizza but this is not the average Pizzeria please thank you we are in the chibit prison where inmates Ricardo and Luca are making pizza for the local schools and hospitals so he has to pay death to society societ and that’s why he here can we taste the pit R I’m staring Food Food Glorious Food Food oh

My cheese is gone okay Anton I’ll give you some of no I give me the here I don’t know how many people outside they can do pizza like this really they have done mistakes in life mistakes of judgment or whatever and that’s why they’re here so and uh now they paid for it and now they’re prepared to uh to be normal again that’s

Good but I wondered if being a traditional man LCA was worried about being released oh the world changes very quickly so he feels that uh it would be difficult to uh it is yeah join the society again Luca knows all too well that the balance of power here in Rome has dramatically

Shifted away from men so tell me who’s in charge of this prison it’s me say no more Antonio we it’s an honor I never never saw something like this she’s the boss my goodness wow wow ah what you said they Italian woman she’s very clever having met the lady Governor it’s clear

To see why Rome’s restaurants serve dainty portions and the guys are working out the good news is men here are now adapting to a more modern way of thinking so the Italian man after all has changed and has changed above all because the woman has many many more uh

Sort of Liberties many any more possibilities and chance to become what really she wants to become so in a way we’re going to get an A match woman ah a more assertive woman and more powerful woman but I don’t seem the woman can be ever matched so in a way

Woman want the man to be a matot wanted to be in charge by the back of their mind that those that in charge no I know I know what happened the woman want to command but want the man to be a wonderful figura commanding so to be

Proud in front of others so it’s the match up woman on the man well so are you a macho I am no that’s good I am regular the matro Italian man is clearly a thing of the past and I think this is a good thing at the very least with a woman at

Work a man can spend more time with his Mates this you have it all on your mouth you know friend and I just love him and what a time we had together stay there don’t move this journey has brought us back to Childhood and I was the most happy boy in the world into the days of our youth white leather shoes

And white trouses they’re very very starish we have hun it t want something to eat and gaed bit of dandelion yeah oh yes and we are eating lots of wonderful Food and a Journey’s hand we have come to know what it is to be Italian man for us it means cooking the greatest food in the World with a very west of friends to this beautiful day your friend
