Italy (I)

Description:

Few world cuisines are as familiar as that of Italy. Italian cuisine, rich in its use of basic ingredients and marked popularity of its dishes, has become the standard bearer of healthy Mediterranean eating. Its indisputable success has been born of a fusion of imaginative cucina povera (peasant cooking) of the south, that of the rich and fertile central regions and central European influences of the north.
