About Mediterranean & Italy Cuisine

Looking for Mediterranean dinner ideas? Mediterranean and Italian cooking is built on a short list of superb ingredients: olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, fresh herbs, cheese and good bread. From the slow ragùs of Emilia-Romagna to the bright seafood of the Amalfi coast and the herb-filled salads of Greece, the region’s food is generous, seasonal and deeply social.

Italian recipes in this collection range from fresh egg pasta and risotto to wood-fired flatbreads and slow-braised meats. Mediterranean dishes lean on vegetables, legumes, fish and olive oil — the everyday cooking that has made this one of the most loved food cultures in the world.

Explore the recipes below to cook the Mediterranean at home: start with a classic pasta, a tomato and bean soup, or a grilled fish with lemon and herbs.
