Carpaccio is a traditional Italian dish consisting of thinly sliced raw meat or fish, typically beef, veal, or tuna, often served as an appetizer. The slices are usually drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice, and garnished with capers, arugula, or shaved Parmesan cheese. Originating in Venice in the 1950s, Carpaccio was first created by Giuseppe Cipriani at Harry’s Bar and named after painter Vittore Carpaccio for his use of vibrant red hues reminiscent of the dish's color. Nutritionally, Carpaccio can be a lean source of protein, rich in essential amino acids, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids (when made with fish). The dish is relatively low in carbohydrates but may contain high sodium and fat depending on the toppings. As it is served raw, freshness and proper handling are crucial to avoid foodborne illnesses, making it both a flavorful and health-conscious option when prepared responsibly.
