Why Italian and Wings
A few years ago when the economy fell we could have sat back and lost everything or we could have done something about it. Being Italian we were always in the kitchen with multiple relatives so there was no doubt but to start an Italian catering company and food truck. With this success we have been able to open our 2nd food truck “Street Wings”.
Ever wonder who invented the buffalo wing?
What do buffalo wings have to do with Italy? It was an Italian woman named Teressa Bellissimo in Buffalo, New York who is credited with inventing these tasty treats. After being faced with feeding her son and all his friends late one night, Teressa came up with a plan. Up until that time the chicken wings were commonly seen as scrap and instantly thrown in the trash. That night Teressa simply had way too many chicken wings on hand. We all know that hungry young boys will eat just about anything in the kitchen. So, Teressa fried the wings and dipped them in a buttered spicy chile sauce. To tone down the heat, she served them to the boys with celery and blue cheese dressing for a dipping sauce. Not only were the wings a hit late that night, they went on to become a favorite dish across the entire United States.
