Sardinia has a complicated political history and many owners, but its history is mainly related to Spain, because it has always been connected with the Roman Empire in Iberia Peninsula, and it did not enter the track of Italian power until 1720, when it spread from Spain to the top of the foothills.
Most dishes in Sardinia are either very primitive, based on goat cheese and barbecue, or have obvious Spanish flavor. So how did North African cuisine become the traditional cuisine of this small island?
1520, the aristocratic family from Genoa obtained the concession to establish a colony on Tabaka Island near the coast of Tunisia from Governor Tunisia.
Romeri Nas sent many families away from the town of Pagri near Genoa where they ruled. They settled down in Tabaka and started an activity mainly focusing on fishing and collecting corals. After two centuries of peaceful life, the relationship between Muslim rulers in Tunisia and Christian forces in the Mediterranean has deteriorated, and the life of Tabalka residents is no longer safe.
Carlo Emmanuel III, Duke of Piedmont, became king of Sardinia in 1720, and maintained good relations with Genoa, a neighboring maritime republic. He also needs to develop the sparsely populated and poor Sardinia territory recently acquired by his country, which earned him the title of king, but after 250 years of Spanish colonial rule, this territory was neglected and backward. He immediately seized the opportunity to extend a warm welcome to Tabard Gini on the uninhabited island of St. Peter.
Starting from 1738, some residents of Tabaka moved to Sampietro, and established a small town called "Strong Charlie" in Kalovt to commemorate King Carlo Emmanuel. 174 1 year, the governor of Tunisia decided to expel all Christians from his territory. Those who don't leave will be regarded as slaves and their property will be confiscated. This led to the dispersion of immigrants and Tabalka was completely abandoned. ManyTabarkini moved to St. Peter or the nearby island of San Antioco, where they established the town of Caraseta. Others went to Spain, where they established the new town Tabaka.
The new Tabaca lost its traditional residents, and maintained its traditional way of life in Spanish culture, language and fully integrated Tabard Gini Carlo Ford Caraseta, and became a fisherman and sailor. They kept the dialect of Pegliese Liguria, which they still speak today, and their traditional cuisine was mainly tuna. And couscous, of course.
Therefore, in Sardinia today, you can taste the traditional food from North Africa, which was spread here from Tunisia via Genoa.
