Tasting Italian Food during a Holiday in Italy
Hello dear friends, viewers and readers of this blog around the world! I am back here because I am already back from my trip in Italy. It was an awesome trip inspite of some challenges. I did survived and had fun too!
I did not only tasted Italian foods but I ate a lot of it. Oh well, this is one of the advantages when you travel a lot, you will also try and eat local cuisines or delicacies.
A kind of pasta in one of our dinners in our hotel in Rivazzurra, Rimini in the region of Emiglia Romagna. As far as I can remember, this is Spaghetti alla carbonara. Side dishes are eggplant, potato, cabbage and a bread with pesto.
Italian cuisine is also well known (and well regarded) for its use of a diverse variety of pasta. Pasta include noodles in various lengths, widths and shapes. Distinguished on shapes they are named — penne, maccheroni, spaghetti, linguine, fusilli, lasagne and many more varieties that are filled with other ingredients like ravioli and tortellini.
During that 8 days holiday in Italy, we tasted and ate various Italian cuisines. The Romagna subregion is known as well for pasta dishes like cappelletti, garganelli, strozzapreti, sfoglia lorda and tortelli alla lastra or very peculiar cheese like squacquerone, piada snacks are famous worldwide.
If you visit Bologna, the capital of Emilia-Romagna region, pasta dishes like tortellini, lasagne, gramigna and tagliatelle are very famous here.
It is good to sample, taste and even eat various delicacies in every country I visited! I am thankful for that opportunity.
