Food & Dairy / po valley | | Italian term or phrase: agli stricc' in carpion | part of a list of regional dishes
Seems to be "lasche in carpione" but I don't know what lasche are either. Wikipedia uses the Italian "lasca" in its list of regional fish dishes but when you click on it you go to a page about chess moves so it's clearly not correct :(
Thanks very much |

| | stricc' in carpiòn (small fried fish with vinegar) | Explanation:
Lasca: http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chondrostoma_genei
which appears to mean "nase": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_European_Nase
-> Lasche del Po in carpione, stricc' in carpiòn (PC)
http://www.ermesagricoltura.it/La-pagina-del-consumatore/Pro...
-> gli stricc in carpion (piccoli pesci fritti sott'aceto)
Carpione: Il carpione è una preparazione utilizzata per la marinatura di carne, pesce e verdure. Viene svolta generalmente con una base di soffritto Mirepoix (sedano, carote e cipolle), a metà cottura viene aggiunto l'aceto e fatto evaporare, nel mentre, friggere il pesce o carne (infarinata) tagliato a tronconi, servire freddo. È un piatto molto antico, può essere classificato sia come un antipasto che un secondo.
I'd say to leave it as it is, because it's in dialect, and to add a small explanation in brackets, not too accurate, just to give an idea.

It appears so - but do add something about the vinegar, too, because just "small fried fish" could easily be just "fritto misto" or "frittura di pesce", where you would have anchovies, prawns, squid/calamari... all just rolled in flour and deep-fried. |

Asker: yes,I intended to leave the dialect anyway - and put an explanation in En in brackets. So, it's just small fried fish, is it? Thanks very much
Asker: Yes, sure. mmmmmmmmmm I only have time for a cheese sandwich today, but I'd love a fritto misto.
