History of mozzarella in a carriage

It is a poor dish, made to reuse old bread and dairy products (therefore quite dry). It seems that mozzarella in carrozza was born in Campania in the early nineteenth century and then spread throughout the boot. The origins of the name of the dish, on the other hand, leave room for interpretation: there are those who think that the position of the cheese between the slices of bread simulates a carriage (the bread would be the carriage that encloses the stringy cheese), or that the filaments of the mozzarella they form bridles, when bitten, tied to the bread just like a carriage with horses.

Everyone, once tasted , could only fall in love with the dish, and in the end it doesn't matter where it comes from, the important thing is that now it is still part of the Italian culinary tradition.
