Apulian cuisine is healthy, based on homemade pastas and cheeses, fresh vegetables, seafood and local olive oil As the summer reaches its end, an Italian region that is not complaining about a bad season is Puglia. Thanks to the weather, beautiful beaches and unique food, Puglia can say that it is loved by Italians and foreigners alike. The organization called Spot (Sistema Puglia per l’Osservatorio Turistico) [2], a local regional agency recording tourism affluence, reports that tourism has increased considerably. Puglia is a region little known to Americans but one well worth discovering for the gourmet traveler. Its sunny location provides the ideal conditions for the cultivation of flavorful fruits, vegetables and viticulture.

  • The-Art-Of-Cooking-I-Tuscany
    1 COOKING IN THE MIDDLE AGES In the Middle Ages the Mediterranean trade in spices, silk and other luxuries from Africa and Asia shipped to Genoa, Venice and Florence, made these cities very rich. The level of culinary refinement and diversity was especially great when compared to the rest of the continent. Italian cuisine was, and still is, better described as a multitude of highly varied regional cuisines, each with long traditions ,and their own specialties. In the Middle Ages local Italian foodstuffs were exported to the New World rather than the other way around, though important foreign products such as vanilla, corn, kidney beans, and tomato were used. Many Italian typical dishes were invented and refined during the Late Middle Ages and the early Renaissance. “Pasta” was used by everyone by the 13th century, though it was commonly made with rice flour rather than durum wheat; “pizza”, the medieval Italian term for "pie", and “torte”(cakes) came in many varieties with a wide range of toppings; “polenta“ made from French green lentils or barley, “risotto” and a myriad of local or regional variants of sausages and cheese were the main dishes. Grapes, eggs ,olive oil and lemons were used as cooking ingredients. Many recipes we enjoy today as an expression of best Tuscan cuisine often date back to old times and Medieval cuisine. The Medieval cuisine was essentially based on very simple dishes, sometimes heavily spiced with pepper or ginger. It consisted of very tasty dishes and preservation such as salting, smoking or brine were used. Meals consisted of the first “ancestors” of today’s bread such as porridge oats and” polenta”, followed by vegetables and meat (especially pork and chicken).
