You'll be caught off guard and want to eat it! Delicious food in movies

"The Godfather" (72)

Tomato spaghetti that satisfies the mafia's stomach

Director: Francis Ford Coppola Cast: Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, James Caan

In `` The Godfather ,'' there are many scenes where people are drinking and eating food. From the very beginning of the wedding scene, the attendees are feasting on delicious food and blushing from the red wine. He often talks about his bloody work at the family dinner table (and is chided by his mother and younger sister). As the saying goes, ``We all eat from the same pot,'' the mafia's unity is strengthened by eating together. Particularly memorable is the scene where Clemenza (Richard Castellano), a veteran member of the family, makes tomato spaghetti in the kitchen. Let the man himself introduce you to the contents of ``Clemenza's 1-Minute Cooking.''

"First, fry the garlic in oil. The Day After paste it on the tomatoes. Make sure it doesn't stick. Boil it and make the sausage and meatballs. A little wine and a little sugar. It's the secret ingredient."

In this scene, Clemenza, a mobster who doesn't mind killing, shows off the skills of an Italian restaurant chef, whipping up a delicious-looking sauce in about a minute. The paste brings out the rich tomato flavor, the red wine brings out the acidity, and the sugar brings out the sweetness. It may seem simple, but it is a well-calculated job. There is nothing better than this to feed the mafia, which has a lot of rough-and-tumble men.

The origin of spaghetti is said to be a stew called ``pulus'' that was eaten in ancient Roman times. The current style of eating it with sauce began around the 17th century, when tomatoes became widely cultivated. In other words, tomato spaghetti is the origin of spaghetti. There may be some meaning in the fact that such traditional cuisine is prepared by a mafia that respects family tradition.
