The first known written record of the dish comes from Maria Manfredi Baschieri, who documented it in her 1886 cookbook. Later, the Italian Academy of Cuisine officially registered the recipe with the Bologna Chamber of Commerce, placing it alongside some of the city’s most iconic dishes, including tortellini.

Traditionally, preparing Friggione was the role of the Azdòra, the matriarch of the household, responsible for overseeing the kitchen. Cooking it required patience, as the onions had to be softened over a long period to develop their signature sweetness and depth of flavour. It was the perfect example of making the most of what was available in rural kitchens.

Dating back to at least the 19th century, Friggione was a staple for farmers and labourers, enjoyed with bread or polenta before heading to the fields. Its name, derived from the local dialect, reflects the key cooking technique—slowly sautéing onions until they melt into a rich, flavourful base.
