Rome is
one of the Italy’s most popular destinations for tourists. Not that all, there
are many foods here that you can’t find anywhere else (or taste not as good as
in Rome). The unique and authentic Roman cuisine reflects the ancient rich
history and varying cultural influences. Once in Rome, Pasta is of course the
most popular main dish of the Roman diet, but you should try others to have a
general look on how special Roman diet can “wow” you!
Roman-Style Pizza
Although being famous worldwide, Pizza
in Rome is surprisingly different from kinds you find in anywhere else, or even
in Naples just 2 hours away. In Rome, pizza is really thin. You will see that
there is no lip to the crust. There are many places in Rome for travelers to
experience the real Roman-style pizza, just remember they only light up the ovens
at night! So, reserve your pizza eating for dinner.
Spaghetti Amatrice Style
Taken its name from a small town of Amatrice, Spaghetti Amatrice Style is perhaps the most popular of Rome's pasta dishes. The food consists of sauce of lard, bacon, tomatoes, onions, wine and Pecorino cheese; it can be eaten with bucatini noodles which would help complete the flavor.
Filet of Salt Cod
Seafood is not a major part of Roman cuisine, but Fillet
(or Salt Cold) is definitely the one you should discover. This Jewish specialty
can be found at many restaurants in the Ghetto district. As it must be soaked
in many changes of cold water, the salt cod really takes time to prepare until it
gets softened. The food is typically served as part of a light stew with
vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, carrots, and potatoes.
Pizza Bianca
One more kind of popular pizza you
should enjoy is Pizza Bianca, a convenient fast-food for your trip in Rome. You
can also call it as the ‘white pizza’. This foccacia style pizza bread can be easily
found in all bakeries in Rome. On
the go to discover remarkable places, let’s grab one and enjoy a favorite piece
of pizza Bianca whose taste is light, fluffy, crispy and salty!
Veal Scallopini with Ham and Sage
The traditional veal dish Saltimbocca
can be literally and humorously translated to "jump in the mouth"
meaning in English. Actually, it’s a recipe originated in Brescia, the food
became so popular in Rome nowadays. Thin pieces of veal meat are topped fully with
ham and sage, and then are cooked quickly in a sauce of butter, white wine, and
seasonings.
