Veal in History

The Romans taste for young calves reached the point where the Emperor Alexander Severus (222-235AD) had to issue a decree forbidding their slaughter, since the breeding stock was being deprived.

Ocean City Olive Tree

This is a creamy dessert cheese used for making the popular dessert Tiramisu.

Mascarpone. High in butterfat and very perishable, Mascarpone tastes like extremely thick, rich whipped cream. (Mortadella is a pork product from Bologna, Montasio is another type of cheese, and Macchiata is a type of espresso).

Gnocchi

Gnocchi is the Italian word for dumplings. They can be made from just about anything: potatoes, flour, ricotta cheese, bread crumbs, spinach or semolina,  Although the dish is Italian, the word derives from a Germanic word for knot, as in a wood knot, probably due to the short, squat shape of gnocchi.
