This condiment can also be used, on its own, as a sauce for spaghetti Did you know that pasta with sardines was the first 'Mare e Monti' in history? According to tradition, pasta with sardines was invented by an Arab cook of General Eufemius of Messina, during the Arabs' military campaign in the area of Syracuse (according to another version, which is not very present in the sources, the event took place in Mazara del Vallo). The cook had to feed the numerous troops, but finding himself in difficult circumstances, he had to call on his inventiveness and elaborate a dish with what the nature of the place offered him; it was thus that he combined fish, represented by sardines (or anchovies in the version of the dish that goes back to the traditional spaghetti alla siracusana), and the flavours of the earth: wild fennel, mainly, and pine nuts. Eufemio's dish is today considered to be the first 'sea - mountain' dish in history, as he was able to bring together the natural products of the sea and those of the mountains!
