Vincisgrassi

Very often, they are confused with lasagna, but Vincisgrassi is one of the most traditional dishes of the Marche region. And in reality, although they look similar, they differ in various respects, including origins. Many date them back to the siege of Ancona in 1799, when the Austro-Russian-Turkish troops opposed Napoleon’s troops, besieged in the city. According to tradition, it was a cook from Ancona who presented this dish to the Austrian general Alfred von Windisch-Graetz, winner of the siege and from whom the name of this dish was derived Vincisgrassi, a simple Italianization of his surname.
But there are other testimonies, they would make it go back to previous eras, with the name of princisgrass, although in reality, although similar, this dish involved the use of truffles, while the béchamel sauce and chicken giblets were completely absent.
