“The very best factor concerning the Mediterranean food regimen? It doesn’t style like a food regimen.”
I simply learn these phrases within the newest situation of the Harvard Gazette and I instantly considered sharing them with you, my expensive pasta-loving mates.
The article begins by stating that of all diets, the Mediterranean one transcends occasions and traits and has established itself as essentially the most dependable, sustainable and, most of all, best to observe. I quote from the article: “… one food regimen specifically has withstood the check of time and been repeatedly heralded by medical doctors and researchers as selling vitality and longevity.”
That is nice and welcome information for pasta followers!
Let’s see why: first, pasta and extra-virgin olive oil are a match made in heaven. Pasta, any sort of pasta: entire wheat, historical grain, gluten free, vegan, farro, or just golden and scrumptious exhausting wheat semolina, cooked to an ideal “al dente” texture and easily tossed with a fruity additional virgin olive oil (“a crudo,” as we are saying in Italy) and maybe sprinkled with Parmigiano Reggiano OR pungent Pecorino Romano, and heightened with recent chopped herbs is a deal with that at all times hits the spot!
Confess: I made you hungry. Now, think about the INFINITE prospects if we additionally resolve so as to add the freshest seasonal greens and/or lean, wholesome meat or seafood this recipe. Now now we have reached perfection, and we will even say that …we’re on a “food regimen! Though farmers’ markets in northern climes could not function in winter, there are nonetheless a lot of methods to create wholesome meals with recent greens, heightened by particular flavors resembling artichokes preserved in olive oil.
Detto, fatto: Take pleasure in my SPAGHETTI WITH ARTICHOKES, SPINACH, AND GARLIC as a winter deal with worthy of Valentine’s Day.
Buon appetito and arrivederci al mese prossimo!
