Italian cuisine is centered around fresh, high-quality ingredients and simple yet refined flavors. Pasta, risotto, and polenta form the foundation, complemented by olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, and fresh herbs. Each region has its own specialties, from Naples’ pizza to Bologna’s rich ragù. Italian food places a strong emphasis on seasonal ingredients, cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano, and cured meats such as prosciutto. Desserts like tiramisu and gelato add a sweet finish.
