A re spaghetti, m eatballs and pizza pie the only
Italian foods you know? If so, there's a whole
co u n tryfu l of d e licio u s Italian-style foods fo r you to
discover. Italy is a land of diversity, ju s t like Am erica
— and th e ir food reflects it! From the north of the
cou ntry com e subtle sauces of butter, o il, ga rlic and
w ine; rich cheese-covered pasta dishes are favorites
in the center of Ita ly; and from the sou th, there’s
an a b u n d a n c e o f d is h e s w ith o liv e s , fr u its
and vegetables.
More than superb recipes, the Italian way of
cooking means a special way of enjoying the results.
T raditio nally, each type of dish is a separate course,
so you can savor the unique textures and seasonings
before m oving on w ith the meal. F irst, there’s the ap­
petizer of vegetables or meat, enhanced w ith a sauce
or herbs. Then soup or pasta or rice, and th ird , a
fish, meat or chicken dish, accom panied by a vege­
table and plenty of crusty bread. A salad may fo llo w ,
then fru its and flavorful cheese. The meal may end
w ith a dessert as sim ple as cookies or as fancy as a
rich pastry.
Translating th is Italian style of eating in to every­
day menus is sim ple. Start your dinner w ith fresh
vegetables (like m ushroom s, peppers and c a u li­
flow er), sprinkled w ith garlic salt. Roast or bake a
chicken w ith spices like oregano, rosemary and pars­
ley to bring out the ju ic y flavor. Add a hearty rice
side d is h — that com bines vegetables and s p ice s—
w ith a delectable tom ato sauce. Preparation is fast
and fo o lp ro o f, thanks to enriched M inu te rice. The
rice absorbs the rich flavor of the sauce and is not
boiled, so it can’t overcook or undercook.
To round out the meal, serve an anchovy (or
onion), to m a to and lettuce salad. Lots of crusty
Italian bread or breadsticks and butter accom pany
the entire dinner.
Dessert can be as sim ple as lemon ice, spum oni
ice cream or macaroon cookies. To make it more
“ Ita lia n o ” , try espresso, a rich native coffee, usually
served black.
Even if your address is Main Street, U .S .A ., your
fa m ily w ill feel like they are in Rome fo r the evening
when you cook Italian-style.
