Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The origins of ice cream are shrouded in mystery, with various cultures claiming credit for its invention. Ancient Romans used snow to chill drinks rather than create ice cream, while Marco Polo's alleged introduction of the dessert from China is also disputed. In the Arab world, a chilled drink called sharbât laid the groundwork for terms like sherbet and sorbet. The popular narrative credits Catherine de Medici with bringing ices to France, but true ice cream didn't appear there until much later, highlighting the complex history of this beloved treat.
