Foodies: The 10 Dishes You Must Try When In Italy
A foodie has no barriers when the stake is on taste. When traveling to a specific destination, the sole purpose of a big time eater is to explore the maximum of the culinary section of that place.
Food unites the world and is the greatest factor behind enjoying a foreign stay. You are categorically not going to cherish your stay where your tongue is annoyed.
When it comes to food, Italy is among the top places which strikes someone’s mind. The mere mention of Italy pushes the images of pasta, pizzas, and gelato in your mind. The legendary and traditional Italian dishes are enough to set the taste buds on a trip to seventh heaven.
Start With… Kiss Me & Fuck Me Series
OK, It might not start as good as having a slice of pizza but… Kiss Me & Fuck Me series is something special in the database of Adult Time studio. It’s like having your very best pizza with a twist of something special. Watch exclusive episodes of couples engaging in passionate kissing while they are having some of the rough time together!
If you are planning a vacation to Italy, here is a list of 10 dishes that you must add to your menu there:
Pizza
Can anything relate to Italy more than pizza? Pizza is as synonymous to Italian cuisine as is Rome to Italy. This flatbread took birth in the nation as Focaccia.
With time, it started to get garnished with toppings and sauces and gained its present-day look and name. It is quite obvious for any Italy Traveller to cherish the authentic taste of Italian salver.
Italian pizza comes under two categories:
- Roman (originated in Rome) – large, thin, and crunchy crust and low on gluten
- Neapolitan (originated in Naples) – thick and fluffy crust with a smaller diameter
So, if you want your taste buds to go dancing with exotic flavours, then don’t miss out on a delicious Italian pizza.
Ribolitta
Discovered out of poverty, this vegetable soup is a rich mixture of healthy vegetables, such as celery, carrots, cannellini beans, cabolo nero, etc., and is thickened with bread in place of meat.
It is relished the most in the autumn as the harvest is at the peak of its taste and the flavours of the soup bursts out in the mouth. This stew is preferably taken as the first course and is full points at health also. You can find the best of ribollitas in Florence.
So, if you want to experience how miraculously leftovers can be modified into an amazing work of taste, then don’t forget to try your tongue on Ribollita.
Arancini
When it comes to taste, no one can deny that dripping cheese balls with a slight crunch is a mouth-watering element of any cuisine.
In Italy, Arancini is the dish that is liked by 99.9% of the population. These light-brown balls full of flavours are always a dish to catch on when hungry.
Traditional fillings of Arancini are rice but with changing time and traditions, we can find a huge variety of fillings. Some famous Arancini you can find in the streets of Italy are:
- Arancini con ragu
- Arancini con burro
- Arancini con funghi
- Arancini con melanzane
Gelato
I do agree that you can find this world-famous dessert almost everywhere and anywhere but it’s worth mentioning in this list to remind you to taste its original essence in the place, where it is originally and authentically made.
Original Gelato is free of any kind of preservatives and is made of natural ingredients and colours. The richness and exotic feel of original Gelato cannot be found anywhere else except in Italy.
So, if in Italy, then do jump on the classic version of this sweet delicacy in the form it is supposed to be.
Panna Cotta
Another one for the sweet tooth hidden in you is Panna Cotta. You can consider Panna Cotta as the sister of Gelato but its feel and taste are quite different from it.
The rich, creamy, and sweet taste of Panna Cotta hasn’t reached the place it deserves. The taste of Panna Cotta is unforgettable for a long time and if once given a sample, you cannot resist having more of it.
The scope of customization with chocolate, caramel or any other topping of your own choice makes it even more delightful.
Carbonara
Suggesting eating pasta in Italy is similar to suggesting visiting the Eiffel Tower in Paris. So, it is just a specific mention of the pasta which you cannot afford to miss and that is Carbonara.
The mastered mixture of Spaghetti, eggs, cured guanciale, and pecorino cheese sums up to this exemplary version of pasta.
When trying carbonara, make sure to visit a place that has carbonara as its specialty as not all can master the art of making the perfect piece of this delicious pasta.
Risotto
If you want to explore more of the traditional side of Italian cuisine, then surely get yourself a bowl of risotto when in Italy.
This iconic platter of precisely cooked rice in stock and blended with enough amounts of flavours will surely take you down the ride of old age Italian cuisine.
The infusion of saffron tang makes this dish even more tempting and luxurious.
Lasagna
You would have tasted Lasagna at many places worldwide but if you missed it in Italy, then you missed a great deal of taste.
Another gem from Naples, Lasagna is a stack of layers, each full of taste and savour. Mouth-luscious-sauce-coated baking sheets with the layers of ground meat commute to this awesome and exotic dish.
So, if you don’t want to repent over the miss of an exceptional treat of the tongue, then do try Lasgna when in Italy.
Tiramisu
Light, creamy, sweet, delicious, and much more! These words are not enough to explain the magic of Tiramisu.
It is a dish which you can’t describe in words as the game of its bite in our mouth is a lifetime experience. Once you taste this over the top dessert, then its mention in this list will become justified to you.
So, if you are on a culinary visit to Italy, Tiramisu must be in your stopping spots.
Florentine Steak
If you want the maximum of Italian flavours into a single dish, then this one is your platter. It is a blue eyed dish of Tuscany and a must try for all the non-vegetarian food lovers.
This thick piece of meat cooked sumptuously with a plethora of spices gives you a complete tour of flavour world. A big foodie can never wish to miss this treat for the taste buds.
Each country has its own food cultures and so does Italy. You can entertain the finest of ingredients in the best of dishes. So, do try these delectable dishes in your trip to Italy and experience the best of taste tours.
After you usher in the New Year, what better way to celebrate than to go on a full blown rampage of three of the most beautiful cities in Italy back to back to back? It’s still winter in January so this is the best time to visit Florence. The city of Florence is a piece of art straight out of a 1900s painting. It pulls the most crowds all year long due to its vintage architecture and its picturesque ambiance. Going in January will save you the struggle of queuing for food, lodging, churches and museums. You will have plenty of time and space to enjoy every single sight.
Venice is the city of love. It is one of the most romantic places on earth which makes it the best stop in February with Valentine’s just around the corner. It is still winter but the main aim is to avoid being bombarded by crowds. No one goes to Venice and doesn’t take a boat ride through the canals as they watch the sunlight sparkling on the water surface. Even though its winter, the sun comes out once in a while. The icing on the cake is the backdrop of the Dolomites gracing the horizons. It’s absolutely breathtaking.
To wrap it up, Sicily gives you a perfect mix of everything, a little romance, architectural marvels and in March, a little sunshine since the winter is slowly coming to an end. The most appealing thing about Sicily is, you cannot really define it. It is very expansive and numerous sites are spread all over meaning that you would need a two-week road trip to connect them all together. During your road trip, you will come across a lot of ancient towns and ruins that belonged to the Romans and the Greek. Don’t forget Sicily is the largest Island on the Mediterranean so everything about it is both magical and historical.
