One of the things I quickly realized during our last (first!) Italy vacation was the beauty of food’s simplicity. Quality ingredients can go a loooong way, and don’t need to be bogged down with superfluous oils and seasonings. If you use fresh ingredients, the natural taste of the food can truly shine. I learned a lot about the types of food I enjoy on that trip (in Italy this would be: all the foods) and new ways to enjoy and prepare certain dishes.
For example: pizza.
Nothing in the world will be as good as REAL Italian pizza, but I did learn that it’s more delicious at home with high-quality and simple ingredients.
Better: with a cracked egg on top.
Best: one pizza per person, no sharing allowed
I noticed that fellow diners would look at us kinda funny if we ordered a pizza to SHARE. (<
