Dentro de las recetas de los fettuccines, sin duda alguna la mas famosa es: Fetuccine Alfredo. Una receta que fue creada por Alfredo di Lelio en su restaurante; duplicó la cantidad de mantequilla que usaba para hacer el spaghetti al burro (spahetti con mantequilla) y le agregó queso parmesano. Así nació esta receta tan delishos que les dejo el día de hoy. Hay muchas variantes en las que le añaden crema, o preparan la salsa en una sartén. La receta original es sencillísima de preparar y muy rápida.

HISTORY OF ALFREDO DI LELIO CREATOR IN 1908 OF “FETTUCCINE ALL’ALFREDO”, NOW SERVED BY HIS NEPHEW INES DI LELIO, AT THE RESTAURANT “IL VERO ALFREDO” – “ALFREDO DI ROMA” IN ROME, PIAZZA AUGUSTO IMPERATORE 30
ResponderBorrarWith reference of your article (for which I thank you), I have the pleasure to tell you the history of my grandfather Alfredo Di Lelio, who is the creator of “fettuccine all’Alfredo” in 1908 in the “trattoria” run by his mother Angelina in Rome, Piazza Rosa (Piazza disappeared in 1910 following the construction of the Galleria Colonna / Sordi). This “trattoria” of Piazza Rosa has become the “birthplace of fettuccine all’Alfredo”.
More specifically, as is well known to many people who love the “fettuccine all’Alfredo", this famous dish in the world was invented by Alfredo Di Lelio concerned about the lack of appetite of his wife Ines, who was pregnant with my father Armando (born February 26, 1908).
Alfredo di Lelio opened his restaurant “Alfredo” in 1914 in Rome and in 1943, during the war, he sold the restaurant to others outside his family.
In 1950 Alfredo Di Lelio decided to reopen with his son Armando his restaurant in Piazza Augusto Imperatore n.30 "Il Vero Alfredo" (“Alfredo di Roma”), whose fame in the world has been strengthened by his nephew Alfredo and that now managed by his nephew Ines, with the famous “gold cutlery” (fork and spoon gold) donated in 1927 by two well-known American actors Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks (in gratitude for the hospitality).
See also the website of “Il Vero Alfredo” (with news about franchising).
I must clarify that other restaurants "Alfredo" in Rome do not belong to the family tradition of "Il Vero Alfredo – Alfredo di Roma" in Rome.
I inform you that the restaurant “Il Vero Alfredo –Alfredo di Roma” is in the registry of “Historic Shops of Excellence” of the City of Rome Capitale.
Best regards Ines Di Lelio
Wow Ines, I am speechless! Thank you so much for reading my blog, you have no idea what it means to me. When I was searching for the recipe, I wanted to find out also the history of the dish, and I read about your grandmother. I went to Italy about 16 years ago and had the enormous pleasure to eat in your restaurant in Piazza Augusto.
BorrarThank you again, and I hope to go back someday and have the pleasure to meet you.
Best regards, Cristina.
