Sometimes, the foods we miss can lead us to treats that we didn’t even know we would love.
Pizza in Italy is often cooked in a very hot stone oven. The crust can be thin and crispy, and the ingredients are usually simple and fresh. Many places make the dough by hand every day.
Yes! Italy is known for using fresh ingredients in its cuisine. Tomatoes, cheese, meats, and olive oil are essential ingredients found in local farms and markets. What grows nearby often becomes what people eat.
I also noticed at the grocery store that even if I couldn’t read every word, I could still figure out what many foods were. Milk still looks like milk. Eggs come in cartons. Fruit looks the same in any language!
