In Italy, food is about so much more
than just filling your belly. It is food that brings the whole family
together after a long hard day at work. Some Italian families are
known spend hours enjoying a tasty Italian meal at a leisurely pace
at the dining table. For this reason, Italian food is a real family
affair and is a way of establishing and maintaining good family
relationships.
Recipes
Most Italian
recipes are handed down from generation to generation, whether it’s
Great Grandpa Luigi’s meatball recipe or Aunty Maria’s famous
spaghetti sauce recipe. Such recipes are passed down in families,
restaurants and pizzerias. The delicious recipes at Pizza Frankfort il ensures that family legacy remains a strong factor
when it comes to Italian food.
Preparation
The preparation of an Italian meal can
involve all members of the family. For example, making Italian
sausage is one time-held tradition in Italy where everyone in the
family comes together to take part in their preparation. From the
grinding of the meat to the filling of the sausage casings to the
actual cooking of the finished product, it’s all bout getting the
family involved! Children can even help to measure, stir and create
the simplest of Italian recipes making them more inclined to eat what
they themselves have prepared.
Eating Together
There’s no doubt about it - Italian
food is made for sharing. Garlic bread, pizza and spaghetti are all
best enjoyed when you have someone to share the wonderful smells and
delicious tastes with. There’s nothing better or more satisfying
than an entire family bonding around cooking and eating good Italian
food.
From antipasto to desserts and coffees,
a meal of high quality Italian food is perfect for bringing the
family together - to share the highs and lows of each family member’s
day while enjoying tasty and nourishing food.
