About Us
The Roman Jewish community in Italy is the oldest in the world outside Israel. Until 1870 the Roman Jews were confined to the ghetto, where they held on firmly to their traditions. Because they were poor people, their traditional simple style of cooking endured. It could be that the traditional plain cooking of the pagans and Christians of ancient Rome is an imitation of their Jewish neighbors.
