1. OUR CUISINE
"Life is a combination of magic and pasta"
/Federico Fellini/
WE ITALIAN
FOOD!!!
2. Italian food is one of the most popular
on earth and Italian cuisine is widely
adopted all over the world. For Italian
food is not merely a means of survival.
It belongs to Italian history and culture.
In Italy, cooking and sharing food is a
way of life. Italian cuisine is always
based on fresh, seasonal products,
which is the main reason why it is hard
to talk about โItalian foodโ as a single
entity. In fact, Italian food varies widely
from region to region โ and even from
village to village โ and according to the
time of the year. Many ingredients are
used across the country with some
more in certain regions than others.
Northern Italian food relies on butter,
meat, potatoes, pork, Parmesan, while
southern cooking is focused more on
olive oil, tomatoes, different types of
cheese, vegetables, capers and
fresh fish.
While travelling from the north to
south of Italy you could experience as
many different dishes as you travelled
around the whole continent.
3. ITALIAN BREAKFAST
Italian Food is conviviality and joy. And slowness of course. Enjoying a
meal with friends or family is the main ingredient of any Italian dish.
The traditional Italian breakfast
consists of a cup of milk and
coffee, some biscuits or a piece
of cake.
Children drink hot
chocolate, or hot milk with
very little barley coffee.
Other products such as
cereals, fruit salad, fruit
juice and yogurt are
becoming increasingly
common as part of the
meal.
If breakfast is
eaten in a bar it is
composed of
cappuccino or
espresso and a
croissant or other
pastries.
4. ITALIAN STARTERS
โAntipastoโ
On special occasions Italians start their lunch or dinner with โantipastoโ. It
literally means "before the meal," and itโs a beloved combination of small
bites of tasty food, usually accompanied by wine or a soft drink and meant
to stimulate the appetite before the main meal.
It consists of cured meats, fresh cheeses, herbs or fish salad.
Wine for adults is an important part of Italian cuisine. Children usually have still
or sparkling water, coke or orangeade with their meals.
5. ITALIAN LUNCH
Lunch is usually the most important meal of the day. A typical Italian lunch consists of
a first course โil primoโ (pasta, rice, soup or potage), a second course โil secondoโ
(meat or fish) served together with a side dish โil contornoโ (vegetables or salad) and
fruit. Italians finish their lunch with an espresso and on special occasions with a
dessert.

ingredients (mozzarella cheese,
tomatoes, chips, frankfurters, ham,

8. ITALIAN SMALL BITES
โAperitivoโ (APPETIZER): The Italian โaperitivoโ is a very
social and functional way of meeting up with friends, having
a cocktail and something to eat before lunch or dinner. It has
become very common in summer, especially on the beach.
But it is also served in bars and restaurants all over the
country.
It usually consists of a drink (crodino or bitter) and some
snacks, such as salami, olives, crisps, peanuts, small
sandwiches or pizza. The drink may taste a bit bitter at the
first sip, but once youโve tried it, the taste is quite nice.
โRicreazioneโ (School breaks): During the morning school
children usually have a sandwich, white or red pizza and they
drink ice tea or fruit juice. They bring it from home or buy it at
school.
โMerendaโ: afternoon snack for children (bread,
cakes, biscuits, fruit, yoghurt, chocolate bars,
crisps or ice-cream).
9. NATIONAL DISHES
There is no single national dish of Italy, as each region has local variations on classic
dishes. Dishes such as pizza, pasta, polenta and minestrone typify traditional Italian
cuisine.
There are hundreds of types of pizza, each
of which is unique to the local town or
city.
PIZZA
From simple basil pesto to creamy
cheese sauces, the collection of Italian
pasta recipes is endless!!!
PASTA
Polenta is a very old dish of Italian
origin made from flour obtained from a
number of cereals, the most commonly
used today is corn. It is served with
tomato sauce, sausages or minced meat.

Minestrone is a thick soup with
pasta and vegetables.

10. FESTIVAL FOOD
CHRISTMAS
Christmas is the most important Italian
festival. On Christmas Italians always have
a big lunch with their family at home or at
the restaurant, with a lot of different
things. In our region, the first course of the
Christmas lunch is โTimballoโ, it consists
of layers of crรชpes with mozzarella cheese,
Parmesan and meat sauce. As second
course we have roasted chicken or lamb
with some side dishes, such as roasted
potatoes, green salad or fennel. We often
finish our lunch with fruit (grapes, pine
apple or mandarins) and some desserts.
We usually have a sponge cake with cream
and custard. Other traditional Italian
Christmas cakes are Pandoro, Panettone
and Nougat. Panettone is made of raisins
and dried fruit. Nougat is made of
almonds or nuts. Traditional Christmas
pastries of our region are โsfogliatelleโ and
โcalcionettiโ.

11. EASTER
In Italy Easter is celebrated with
traditional Easter foods. These can vary
from region to region although some can
be found all over Italy. Boiled blessed eggs
are usually eaten at the beginning of the
meal.
Lamb is usually the second course for the
Easter meal, and depending on the region,
it can be served in various ways. In
Abruzzo โagnello cacio e uovoโ is cooked
in an egg, pepper and cheese sauce. In the
region of Lazio and in southern Italy, the
lamb is usually roasted simply with
rosemary, red wine and garlic. In Sardinia
and some places in Campania the Easter
meal may consist of goat instead of lamb.
โAgnello cacio e uovoโ
There is no lack of desserts
on Easter day. Traditional
desserts for the Holy feast
are the โCassata Sicilianaโ, a
cake with ricotta filling;
the colomba, a dove-shaped
cake with dried fruit and
almonds. Children also have
chocolate eggs.

12. WAY OF EATING
Most Italians have their meals at home, sitting at the
table with all the family. In Italy food is conviviality
and slowness of course. Many adults still make their
own food (e.g., tomato sauce from their own
tomatoes) and takeaways are still not very frequent.
But having a cup of coffee at the bar is a daily
Italian ritual, at breakfast, mid-morning or after
lunch. Whether it is an espresso coffee, a
cappuccino or one of the many other versions of
coffee in Italy, it is generally drunk standing at
the bar rather than sitting down at a table.
In some schools children have lunch at the school
canteen. But most students have a packet lunch
when there are extracurricular activities.
Commuters and other workers have a quick meal
in a restaurant.
