"Italian Table Talk: Gelato, affogato & some history".
"Unfussy Fortunato Wicker Park eatery is simply impressive". "An Introduction to Affogato (Recipes and Tips)". However in America, the word affogato was included in English dictionaries as of 1992. The origins of the affogato in Italian history are widely unknown. It is popular in countries where they dress it with chocolate syrup, cantuccini, or biscotti to provide extra flavors. Typically the ingredients in the ice cream includes dairy, starch, and sugar.
In Italy, it is known as "gelato al fior di latte" with the translation to English "flower of milk". While the recipe of the affogato is more or less standard in Italy, consisting of a scoop of vanilla gelato topped with a shot of espresso, variations exist in European and American restaurants. Affogati are often enjoyed as a post-meal coffee dessert combo eaten and or drunk with a spoon or straw.
A biscotto or cookie can also be served and enjoyed alongside this beverage. Occasionally, coconut, berries, honeycomb and multiple flavors of ice cream are added. Whether a dessert or beverage, restaurants and cafes usually serve the affogato in a tall narrowing glass, allowing the fior di latte, vanilla gelato, or ice cream melt and combine with espresso into the hollowed space in the bottom of the glass. Though restaurants and cafes in Italy categorize the affogato as a dessert, some restaurants and cafes outside of Italy categorize it as a beverage.
