Experiencing Italian Food
One could quarrel that Italian food is the most famous in the world. However, the cliche of pizza and pasta is far from the truth. In noun, Italians live longer in general than most and this is largely due to a varied Mediterranean diet of fresh yield and seafood. Italy is home to some of the best food in the world: regional specialties, fine seasonal delicacies, excellent desserts and drinks. Although, coming back to pizza, the art of its making has even received UNESCO World Heritage status. The best way to cook the original Italian pizza is in a stone oven. Be sure to try this original style, especially if you visit the Naples area.
Each region has its control local specialties that are worthy as a cuisine in their own right, and vegans and vegetarians will find plenty of options. Typically, Italian cuisine is based on the Mediterranean diet, but its ingredients are explored creatively and always used in their season of production. Seasonal vegetables and herbs are the key ingredients in any authentic Italian kitchen, especially in Southern Italy.
