Secret of Italian cuisine

Eating tasty food is your choice. Today we want to discover one of the oldest and world’s #1 cuisine.  

"Great Italian food is all about simplicity, while still hitting all the details," says Chef Scott Harris.

So, let’s learn the secrets of how Italians can make the most delicious dishes in the world. 

1. Use herbs, the fresh ones. Parsley, basil, oregano, mint… herbs help create distinct ethnic flavors. 
2. Don’t overuse garlic. A common misconception about Italian food is using as much garlic as possible. That’s wrong. Italian cooking consists of subtle flavors that do not always need to be overpowered by garlic. 
3. Use lots of water. Pasta needs a lot of water and space. Remember to take a big pan. A lot of water and a big pan will prevent your pasta from sticking together, and you would not need to make a crime and add olive oil to pasta water.   
4. Don’t overcook pasta. Take the pasta out before the water is gone, and keep that water. Your sauce needs the pasta water for enriching the texture. 
5. Buy quality ingredients. When you enter the Italian market, your mind will blow from the variety of fresh vegetables, herbs, fruits… Choosing the best and freshest ingredients will make your meal flavor special.
6. Avoid ketchup. Never ever put ketchup on pasta in front of an Italian. That’s a sin that you don’t want to make. Moreover, don’t make Italians angry by putting pineapple on pizza. Make sure you follow their rules. 

Last but not least, simple is always better. Just a few ingredients of excellent quality and you will get the best dish. That’s the secret.
