Tradizione italiana x ingredienti giapponesi - l'esperienza di Carmine
Il boom della cucina italiana in Giappone non conosce limiti. Negli ultimi anni i ristoranti italiani sono cresciuti così tanto in termini quantitativi e qualitativi che è oramai possibile gustare i piatti delle venti regioni italiane senza aver bisogno di recarsi nel Bel Paese.
Trent’anni fa, quando l’amore per la cucina italiana esplose, gli ingredienti a disposizione dei ristoratori erano estremamente limitati. Ciò non rappresentava comunque un ostacolo per chi, come Carmine Cozzolino, era determinato ad aver successo come chef: “Quando sono arrivato in Giappone oltre 30 anni fa gli ingredienti a disposizione erano pochi e ho dovuto inventare nuove soluzioni per ricreare le ricette della mia infanzia. È incredibile come il risultato sia stato, a volte, anche migliore dell'originale."
Carmine, oggi imprenditore e chef di successo di tre ristoranti in Giappone racconta la sua esperienza agli ospiti di ICCJ in un seminario che comprenderà anche una parte di degustazione.
Programma
19:00 – Saluti e presentazione del seminario
10:05 – La cucina italiana di allora e adesso
19:40 – Presentazione della ricetta e preparazione del piatto

Italian tradition x Japanese ingredients - Carmine's experience
The boom of Italian cuisine in Japan knows no limits. In the last few years, Italian restaurants have grown so much in quantitative and qualitative terms that it is now possible to taste dishes of the twenty Italian regions without having to travel to Bel Paese.
Thirty years ago, when the love for Italian cuisine exploded, the ingredients available to chefs were extremely limited. However, this was not an obstacle for those who, like Carmine Cozzolino, were determined to succeed as a chef: "When I arrived in Japan over 30 years ago, there were few available ingredients and I had to invent new solutions to recreate the recipes of my childhood. It's amazing how the result was, sometimes, even better than the original."
Carmine, today a successful entrepreneur and chef of several restaurants in Japan, tells his experience to ICCJ’s guests in a seminar that will also include a tasting session.
