First, let's take a look at a large number of specialty foods.
1. Italian pizza
Italian pizza can be said to be the "vanguard" of China people's recognition of Italian cuisine! This kind of pancake with strong local flavor is a favorite of many people.
2. spaghetti
Spaghetti, also known as spaghetti, is the pastry closest to China people's eating habits in western-style dinner. There are many kinds of pasta, each with its own name and different length, and its hollow shape is called macaroni by some users in China.
3. T-shaped steak
Speaking of Italian food, I have to mention Florence T-bone steak. In Lonely Planet, it is described as follows: The real T-shaped steak must come from precious Chianina cattle, and the steak should be roasted on charcoal (oak or olive wood is better), and only salt and pepper are added after roasting. This kind of thick steak has a hard and crisp skin, bright red, tender and juicy inside, and the T-bone in the middle adds flavor.
4. Parma ham
Authentic Parma ham is only produced in the Parma Mountains in northern Italy. Pigs must adopt Italian local pig breeds and must be raised in northern Italy. Pigs must weigh more than150kg. They enjoy the mountain breeze from the Apennines in the mountains of Palma and cook in the humidity and climate in the north. Only after testing can Parma ham bear the crown mark of Duke Parma. Certified Parma ham must meet 300 standards. After two years of production and many tests, this process is so complicated that the accustomed Italians wrote a guide for it.
5. Tiramisu
An Italian soldier is about to go to war, but there is nothing at home. In order to prepare dry food for him, his beloved wife made all the biscuits and bread that could be eaten at home into cakes, which meant to take me away. That cake is called tiramisu. Whenever a soldier eats Tiramisu on the battlefield, he will think of his home and his lover. Tiramisu means "take me away" in Italian, taking away not only delicious food, but also love and happiness.
