Italian cooking
Italian cuisine is a very appealing element of the traditional Mediterranean diet. Italian cooking combines simple ingredients in a delicious way and features an abundance of fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, cereals and olive oil.
The very soul of Italian cooking is a genuine enjoyment for life and a love for simple foods prepared with care. Olive oil is at the heart of Italian cooking and Italian culinary traditions are the heart of the Mediterranean cuisine. Ever-present on the Italian table, olive oil is added to soups and sauces, drizzled over vegetables and served with fresh bread and wine.
