30 delicious first courses we can't do without – Italian Cuisine


When you think of the perfect menu, each course has its weight. The appetizer task is to whet the appetite, the first dish to announce the character of the meal and the second to consolidate it. The sweet instead is a cuddle, to close in beauty and feel in the balance between the party and everyday life. But let's take a step back and go back to the first course. How to choose the right one?
Today we want to start from a collection that makes us safe: that of the first delicious. A series of recipes that makes everything possible thanks to taste of each forkful. The eyes are happy and so is the palate in front of a course that knows how to tell its simplicity, without ever being banal. Yes to spaghetti, rigatoni, ravioli, fusilli, linguine, gnocchi and risotto prepared with a base of ingredients so varied to conquer everyone. In fact, we find vegetables, fish, meat, many different sauces and different types of skilfully used cheeses. To enrich, create a creamy consistency or give character to dishes that are otherwise too delicate. There is also space for vegetable preparations and recipes that focus entirely on tradition such as the timeless pasta alla Norma.
