Tenuta’s Deli in Kenosha, Wisconsin is here to enrich your Easter table with a taste of Italy’s culinary heritage with our premade frittata flavors. Frittatas, a cornerstone of Italian cuisine, boast a history as rich and varied as their ingredients. Here’s a glimpse into the fascinating journey of frittatas from ancient tables to your Easter feast.

The term “frittata” is derived from the Italian verb “friggere,” meaning “to fry,” reflecting the traditional cooking method of this beloved dish. Originating from Italy, frittatas have evolved from a simple egg-based meal to a canvas for culinary creativity and regional ingredients.

Frittatas trace their roots back to ancient civilizations, notably the Romans, who savored a dish known as “ova spongia.” This early rendition combined beaten eggs and milk, hinting at the primitive beginnings of the frittata. Through centuries, this versatile dish has woven itself into the fabric of Italian cooking, adapting to the tastes and treasures of each region.

From the sun-kissed hills of Tuscany to the rugged landscapes of Calabria, frittatas reflect the diversity of Italy’s regional cuisines. Whether it’s the tender wild asparagus of spring or the hearty leftovers from a family dinner, frittatas serve as a delicious testament to Italian resourcefulness and love for food.
