The King and Grissini, the royal house of Savoy.
00:00:00
Grissini are made with the finest flour and baked to a golden brown.
00:00:05
They are crisp and crunchy to the taste.
00:00:11
They were invented here in Turin.
00:00:14
Northern Italy was ruled by the Savoy family in the 16th century
00:00:18
and they decided to make the city their capital.
00:00:22
It was the beginning of an era of prosperity.
00:00:25
This is the royal house of Savoy,
00:00:29
a world heritage property.
00:00:33
The Savoy family acquired their fame during the 19th century
00:00:37
when Italy was divided into small city-states
00:00:40
that were ruled by other countries such as Austria and Spain.
00:00:44
The Savoy family brought these small entities into one nation
00:00:50
and took the lead in fighting for their independence.
00:00:53
Italy won its independence in 1861
00:00:57
and Turin was chosen as its first capital.
00:01:00
This is Vittorio Amadeo II, also known as the Wolf of the Savoy.
00:01:06
He created the foundations of the Kingdom of Italy.
00:01:11
Grissini were first made in a bakery appointed by the Savoy family
00:01:16
and near the royal house.
00:01:20
Vittorio Amadeo II had been frail from birth.
00:01:23
The family doctor told his worried mother that she should improve his diet.
00:01:26
Grissini were invented to make digestible bread
00:01:31
with fermented dough for the boy.
00:01:34
Grissini became increasingly popular among aristocrats.
00:01:38
When Amadeo II became king,
00:01:43
he was actively involved in Turin's planning and construction
00:01:45
during the 18th century.
00:01:49
Many grand houses were built.
00:01:52
The king confiscated land from the aristocrats
00:01:55
and sold it to doctors and businessmen,
00:01:58
hoping to create a new middle class.
00:02:00
Aristocratic families were made to live in one building.
00:02:04
The ground floor was used as a stable.
00:02:08
The second floor was for the family.
00:02:11
The third was for the servants and the fourth for craftsmen.
00:02:16
Hence Turin's orderly cityscape of four-storey houses.
00:02:23
The king was behind the Grissini
00:02:29
and also laid the city foundations.
00:02:31
Turin still has several bakeries
00:02:35
which stick to the original 18th century recipes.
00:02:37
Many people queue up on weekends for freshly baked Grissini.
00:02:41
There is a rule to eating them.
00:02:46
You have to break them in half.
00:02:48
They shouldn't be eaten without being broken first.
