Italy

This is one of the dishes that have made Italian cuisine well know over the world. Try a few dishes from Southern Italy and you may never want to go home again.

This dish from Piedmont is only one of dozens from a section of this lovely country known for outstanding cuisine. Try it and you'll quickly become convinced.

This Sicilian lentil salsa is a sauce that takes just a bit more preparation but, oh my, are the results ever worth it!

Luckily, there are several ways to get that Sicilian sauce just right. Here's one example, a fine tomato-based concoction just right for fish dishes.

Preparation is simplicity itself in this case.

A light white clam sauce is perfect for those low-cal meals served with a dry Riesling.

A traditional ragu may be too much trouble. So go for something a little bit different and try a Sugo di Carne.
