Marco and Dominic prepare pasta, Italian style.
February 14, 2014
Most people in Southern Europe, in countries such as Italy, Spain, and France, follow a common Mediterranean diet. It’s based mostly on carbohydrates, and a plentiful lunch and dinner.
Pasta, bread, dairy products, and fish are elementary to the diet. Eggs and white meat are eaten less frequently than in the US, and red meat and fast food rarely enter the diet – as little as a couple of times a month. It can be said that the people In Italy live on pasta and bread. Lunch and dinner, pasta is eaten by Italians. Sunk in tomato sauce, with eggs, cheese, pesto; pasta is cheap, delicious, and very easy to cook. Ametriciana pasta is a quick and tasteful way to cook pasta, and the pasta omelette is one of the best ways to revive it. Enjoy!
