15 Italian Street Foods You Need In Your Life

Anyone who’s been to Italy knows that it’s a country full of delicious food. And you don’t have to sit down to be treated to some of the trendiest items out there. Enter street food. It’s cheap, authentic, and highly instagrammable. Not sure where to start your foodie quest? Use this guide to find the most iconic Italian street foods to ensure the best culinary exploration.

  Arancini:     Though arancini means “little oranges” in Italian, there’s nothing fruity     about these amazing fried rice balls. Arancini are deep fried until     they’re crispy on the outside but warm and creamy on the inside. Cheese     and peas are the most common fillings, with minced chicken and beef     sometimes added. Do yourself a favor and order a couple with a side of     spicy arrabiata sauce. Want the most authentic arancini? Head to Sicily     where they originated, all the way back to the 10th century. 

Olive     all’Ascolana: It’s probably no surprise that olives would be on this list,     but it’s not just the fruit you’re getting with this popular street food.     Imagine olives stuffed with ground meat and parmesan that are lightly     breaded and fried. Drooling yet? Your order will come in a paper cone or     bag, piping hot straight from the street seller. Dive right in!

Lampredotto:     Most loved by the locals, this dish may not sound particularly appetizing     but it’s super flavorful. Ready for what’s inside? Lampredotto, the     ultimate Florentine street food, consists of cow stomach cooked in a broth     of tomato, onion, celery, and parsley. You can order it as is or choose to     have it in sandwich form. It’s not for the faint of heart, but we’re     confident you’re brave enough to try it. 

Pani     ca meusa: If we didn’t scare you off with the lampredotto, brace yourself     for this one. Pani ca meusa is chopped veal spleen and lung steamed in     lard, then stuffed into a sandwich. Again, it tastes way better     than it sounds. 

Porchetta     Romana: If you’re still reading (nice job!), prepare to salivate.     Porchetta is a juicy, savory boneless pork roast seasoned with salt and     herbs and roasted on a spit. A great roast will be stuffed with garlic,     rosemary, fennel, and other herbs. It’s served sliced and piled atop a     crusty bread roll, making for one heck of a sandwich. 

Pizza     al taglio: You’ve been waiting to see pizza on this list, haven’t you?     First, take everything you “know” about pizza and toss it out the window. Pizza al taglio, or,     “pizza by the cut” is baked in large, rectangular trays and sold by     weight. Savor your options, point to what you like, then ask for as much     as your body can handle.

Panzerotti:     While you’ve got pizza on the brain, listen up for this next one.     Panzerotti closely resembles a smaller version of a calzone, or folded     pizza. But guess what? It isn’t baked. It’s fried. You’re welcome.     Traditionally, these pockets of pizza dough are packed with tomato sauce     and mozzarella, but the ingredient list often     includes ham, olives, and mushrooms.

Panelle:     What was once considered cucina povera (poor man’s food), is now a     street food staple. You’ll be daydreaming about this fried chickpea     polenta for years to come. It’s best eaten alone, but if you’re feeling     fancy, make it a sandwich. Mmm, mmm.

Polpette:     Spaghetti and meatballs? Forget about it. The polpette is really all you     need. Look for these meatballs on the streets as well as in Venetian wine     bars served as cicchetti. LINK HERE. 

Pesce     fritto al cono: The fried olives mentioned above aren’t the only     deliciousness served in a cone. There isn’t much better than roaming the     streets of Italy holding a cup of fresh, fried seafood. Is there? Don’t     think so. You’ll get seafood fresh off the boat that is lightly battered     and fried right before your eyes. Depending on the catch of the day, you     may get a combination of fish, squid, or shrimp. Brighten it up with a     squeeze of fresh lemon.

Piadina:     Both meat eaters and vegetarians alike will line up for this delicious     dish. It’s essentially a flatbread made of flour, olive oil, salt, and     water. You can get it served alone or stuffed with, basically anything, to     create a wrap. Keep it simple and order it with tomatoes and mozzarella so     you can taste the quality of each ingredient.

Arrosticini:     Here we’ve come to one of the lesser known street foods, but certainly one     of the most delicious. These long and thin skewers of lamb can only get     tastier with a drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle of sea salt. The meat is     skewered and cooked on an elongated charcoal grill. The skewers rest on     top of metal grills and hung directly over hot coals. For those who like a     little heat, add some chile pepper flakes for a spicier take on this mouth     watering street food.

Gelato:     You’ve been waiting for something sweet, haven’t you? We’d be remiss if we     didn’t include Italy’s most sought after dessert. Made from a creamy base     of milk, cornstarch, and sugar, gelato is less creamy than ice cream but a     lot more flavorful. Popular flavors include pistachio,     stracciatella, and lemon. 

Zeppole:     From bakeries to cafes to street fairs, you’ll find these deep-fried dough     balls pretty much everywhere. While they are said to have originated in     Naples and Rome, nowadays every city in Italy has put their own twist on     zeppole. Depending on where you go, you’ll find zeppole filled with     chocolate, jelly, custard, pastry cream, or even a honey butter mixture --     but they’re always topped with powdered sugar. Make sure to eat them right     out of the fryer!

Cannoli:     Last but not least, we had to include an easily recognized Italian street     food, er, dessert. LINK. Please do us a favor and never, ever resist this     tube-shaped pastry dough filled with ricotta cream. It’s worth every bite     -- especially the ones with topped with chocolate chips. 

 Now that we’ve schooled you on the hottest street foods of Italy, which ones will you be hunting down on your next adventure abroad?

   Browse through the https://mortadellahead.com/ and you will see what you have been missing out on for all these years. Delivering the best Italian food online!

November 2017 in Review, From Dumplings to Doughnuts

The month in openings, closings, top news, and more

November 2017 featured tons of openings, particularly in Boston’s Seaport District and West End. It was a month filled with pasta, pizza, and yes, more juice bars. Non-local chains Caffe Nero and Sweetgreen continued to expand around the Boston area with two new locations apiece, while Luke’s Lobster added a new location as well. And that wasn’t the only addition on the lobster roll front: Lobstah on a Roll opened in the South End, serving up five-foot-long lobster rolls.

Things were quieter on the closure side, but we lost Self Portrait (the recently revamped T.W. Food in Cambridge), the Newton expansion of Bottega Fiorentina, and a few other spots.

Read on for a summary of November 2017, including the most-read news stories and maps, the openings, and the closings.

November 2017 in Review, From Dumplings to Doughnuts

The month in openings, closings, top news, and more

November 2017 featured tons of openings, particularly in Boston’s Seaport District and West End. It was a month filled with pasta, pizza, and yes, more juice bars. Non-local chains Caffe Nero and Sweetgreen continued to expand around the Boston area with two new locations apiece, while Luke’s Lobster added a new location as well. And that wasn’t the only addition on the lobster roll front: Lobstah on a Roll opened in the South End, serving up five-foot-long lobster rolls.

Things were quieter on the closure side, but we lost Self Portrait (the recently revamped T.W. Food in Cambridge), the Newton expansion of Bottega Fiorentina, and a few other spots.

November 2017 in Review, From Dumplings to Doughnuts

The month in openings, closings, top news, and more

November 2017 featured tons of openings, particularly in Boston’s Seaport District and West End. It was a month filled with pasta, pizza, and yes, more juice bars. Non-local chains Caffe Nero and Sweetgreen continued to expand around the Boston area with two new locations apiece, while Luke’s Lobster added a new location as well. And that wasn’t the only addition on the lobster roll front: Lobstah on a Roll opened in the South End, serving up five-foot-long lobster rolls.

Things were quieter on the closure side, but we lost Self Portrait (the recently revamped T.W. Food in Cambridge), the Newton expansion of Bottega Fiorentina, and a few other spots.

Read on for a summary of November 2017, including the most-read news stories and maps, the openings, and the closings.
