It would seem – live and rejoice!! Cucumbers and tomatoes in Naples are sold inexpensively all year round.
Cut them, added a green bow – and here you have a name name for the heart!
But – no!!!
Neapolitans do not like cucumbers. The taste is said to have a specific!
But to tell the truth – in fact, cucumbers here are tasteless. And big as zucchini. And zucchini, on the contrary, are small, like our cucumbers.
Everything upside down.
When I just arrived in Italy, Signora Nunzia (Read here), already knowing our Slavic tastes, I bought tomatoes … Green.
She knew that we loved tomatoes, but did not know that we prefer them red.
So I wanted to put them in the sun to grow up.
But hunger is not aunt. And I ate a salad of green tomatoes in Neapolitan.
And the family of Signora Nunzia ate only a head of salad.
The leaves do not cut it, but tear with their hands.
The light part of the salad sheet is selected and everything else is thrown away.
Poured with olive oil, lemon juice or vinegar.
Neapolitans rarely add onions rarely.
He smells!
