About this deal

Insalata mista -Mixed leaf salad with fresh goat’s cheese, datterini tomatoes, cucumber, mint, basil Chili Flakes: (red pepper flakes): Chili flakes are something I use quite a lot to spice up sauces and add some heat. I also loved the jarred chili pastes you can buy, they taste incredible!

Quality breadcrumbs are another key ingredient in Italian cooking. Italians love using Italian style breadcrumbs. These breadcrumbs contain all kinds of dry herbs and spices. They work best for dredging meat and always provide an additional flavor and crispy finish to your recipes. Breadcrumbs (Pan grattato) are normally used to coat meat and vegetables when frying or sauteing and also when creating meatballs, meatloaf, or other stuffings. They’re often combined with other herbs and spices but you can make your own using dry Italian bread and adding your own flavorings such as dry oregano, thyme, and rosemary. Roasted guinea fowl stuffed with prosciutto di Parma, lemon zest, thyme and Mascarpone on pagnotta bruschetta, Pan-roasted sea bream fillet with datterini tomatoes, capers and Taggiasche olives, with Swiss chard and slow-roasted Sicilian red peppers Some cheeses do not require refrigeration, however it’s up to you. I normally keep cheeses in the refrigerator and I take them out earlier to be enjoyed at room temperature as an appetizer with a Prosecco, after a dinner with fruit, or any other occasion.Have dry pasta in different shapes, short and long, such as penne, rigatoni, spaghetti, farfalle, fettuccine, and so on. Pasta has always been a major staple in the Italian pantry, since it allows you to prepare even a very basic satisfying meal by just adding olive oil or butter, and some grated cheese on top. Olive Oil Sfogliatella is a shell-shaped layered pastry, with a sweet custard-like filling made with semolina, ricotta, and candied citrus fruit. You can also find versions with other fillings such as a simple whipped cream, almond paste, or chocolate cream. Here’s a list of some common cheeses used in Italy: Parmigiano Reggiano, Grana Padano, Pecorino Romano, Mozzarella, Ricotta, Mascarpone, Pecorino Toscano and whatever you can afford from the Italian cheese counter. Dried Oregano: I use oregano in a ton of sauces, choosing a good one makes such a difference. Buy a bunch of dried oregano that you can often find in Italian specialty stores rather than in jars but if you can't find that go for organic. There is a wide range of pasta sauces available in store, almost entirely ready made to make it easier for you and your family to get an authentic taste of Italy. We’ll recommend which to include in your 5-star meal at home.

Mozzarella-Mozzarella with mixed tomatoes, basil, toasted pagnotta bread and shaved ricotta salata 219kcal Its wide daily use has made tomato sauce a staple of Italian cuisine. Tomatoes are rich in vitamins and minerals, making them precious for vitality, growth and organic balance. It has anti-infection and anti-toxic properties. Tomato sauce is easy to digest if prepared simply, without adding any condiments, except for a pinch of salt (so look at the list of ingredients if you don’t make your own passata). The sauce obtained from cooking the tomatoes is used for a large number of pasta dishes.

Cornmeal flour is used to make polenta. You can also get a pre-cooked polenta that comes in plastic rolls. It’s delicious when sliced and sauteed or grilled with cheese and other toppings. Fresh herbs and spices are added to many Italian dishes to enhance flavor; the most common are oregano, basil, sage, rosemary, parsley, hot pepper, thyme. Italians seldom cook without using some of these beloved herbs and spices. Basil is the scent of summer and a herb that can transform any dish into a gourmet dish. Sage, parsley and rosemary are among the most widely used herbs in the Italian kitchen. Sage is used to enhance roasts, beans and potatoes. Rosemary is great on roasts, and even for some sweets. Parsley, rich in vitamins A, B, C and iron, is excellent with seafood, boiled potatoes and essential for the preparation of many sauces. Yes, Garlic should be in your Italian pantry as well, as it’s an essential ingredient for many recipes, especially the ones from Central and Southern Italy. Rarely garlic is cooked together with onions, but there are exceptions, especially in the U.S. Keep the garlic well aerated and in a cool place.
