You are also assuming that Italian cuisine didn't evolve in the past century. Even the most famous Italian dish: pizza margherita is not 150 years old. There are very common dishes nowadays, for example carpaccio, that pare post-ww2 inventions.
Did you know that Quebecois French is closer to old French than proper French French? Can you safely say it isn't us who have evolved and Italo-Americans who have stayed the same?
- SmellTheGlove 10y agoNo, I think that both Italian and Italian-American cooking have evolved over that time. Italian-American cooking isn't a snapshot of early century southern Italy, and neither is a given Italian region a snapshot of its past. Both have moved forward independently. Both have changed a bit in my lifetime.
