A trip to Italy deserves to be made not only for special landscape of the country. Travel to Piedmont, you will love, and strong flavor of lasagna preparations (sweet sauce of olive oil, garlic and anchovies), served hot with crispy greens. Bollito is another highly aromatic dish prepared from different types of meat, cooked together and served with a spicy sauce, as, for example, green baguette. Tosca region is known for its olive oil, highly valued and often served with bread only. A variant is bruschetta, olive oil mixed with garlic and sprinkled on toast. Tuscany cuisine is very different from that of its northern neighbor, Emilia-Romagna is home to the most opulent Italian kitchens.
