GIUSEPPE GARIBALDI



Giuseppe Garibaldi  (July 4, 1807 – June 2, 1882) was a general and politician who played a large role in the history of Italy and the world. He is considered, with Camillo Cavour,Victor Emmanuel II and Giuseppe Mazzini, as one of Italy's "fathers of the fatherland". He had gastronomic simple habits. There were rustic vegetable and legume soups, dried cod, salami, cheese, dried figs on his table but he also liked pasta and pesto. Ship's biscuits with raisins were the preferred dessert of Garibaldi and, today,  the Garibaldi's biscuits, very good biscuits with raisins are sold in the big English stores. It seems that Garibaldi visited the town of  Tynemouth in the north-east of England  receiving a warm welcome. John Carr, a member of  a historical Scottish  family created, in Garibaldi honour, these delicious things that, marketed since 1861, by Peak Freans company became immediately successful in all the country and in USA. Garibaldi's biscuit are a classic of English pastry making confectionery and a relating collection of anecdotes exists and they are quoted in numerous sit-comedies and theatrical works.
