After living in Italy for 4 months I came back to the US pronouncing bruschetta the correct way— brew-SKET-a and not brew-SHET-a. Upon ordering some bruscetta last fall, I was promptly told that it was pronounced “brew-SHET-a” by the waitress. Oye! Don’t even get me started on the Italian pronunciation of pollo, which is not the same as the Spanish pronounciation of pollo (they say Poi-yo, Italians say Pollo) But anyway, calzone, no matter how you pronounce it, yum!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12554571961437422947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-23416005514620875042008-04-09T11:49:00.000-08:002008-04-09T11:49:00.000-08:00definitely pronounce the E, and after spending a s...definitely pronounce the E, and after spending a summer living in Rome I now know that americans also butcher pistachio and bruschetta (it's pi-STA-kee-o and bru-SKEH-ta, but if you ever say that in public people might throw things at you.

I can just see some of the elderly members in our chapel scrunching their faces in disbelief and/or disdain. That hymn does happen to be one of my favorites. I have family in Anchorage and have always dreamed of at least visiting Alaska some day.Pencil Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09754663050624125557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-61026783285340715692008-04-08T07:04:00.000-08:002008-04-08T07:04:00.000-08:00Yummy!!!

I think cal-ZONEs are much better than pizza because 1) there is more melty/gooey cheese and 2) you don't have to fight over who gets the last piece. It's all yours. :)Marketing Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01092466674384204546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-41471470547060919432008-04-06T13:07:00.000-08:002008-04-06T13:07:00.000-08:00As perhaps the only Italian person in Alaska, I'll...As perhaps the only Italian person in Alaska, I'll say that my off-the-boat grandmother says cal-ZONE. She also makes one that would make you cry it's so good. Provolone is "provo-lone" - no "nay". I have heard some Italians pronounce it "provolon-ee". I've never heard an Italian person say "delicioso" either - I think that's Spanish. <BR/>I live in Fairbanks and refuse to cook with any meats labeled "Italian" at the store because frankly, they aren't good enough :-( My parents mail me pepperoni and salami from NY as it is now! You probably have more to choose from in Anchorage, though.<BR/>As for the pronounciations of Italian words...do your best. We don't expect you to get it right all the time :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-19517966168714810202008-04-06T11:12:00.000-08:002008-04-06T11:12:00.000-08:00Hmmm, I have always said cal-ZONE, but now I am go...Hmmm, I have always said cal-ZONE, but now I am going to be saying cal-ZONE-ay because you put it into my head. <BR/><BR/>I had never thought of making these for the freezer but it seems a perfect idea (and I've been trying to collect kid friendly freezer meals for after I have the baby).
