I Am Looking For A Recipe For Antipasto - Traditional Italian Antipasto Recipes
Antipasto ClassicoANTIPASTO CLASSICO The beauty of this dish is that no cooking is involved. You are assembling prepared ..... Italian cooking is above all seasonal, and you'll find that in the selection of vegetables that go into an antipasto misto too.
Eat slowly and enjoy. Italians don’t “wolf” their food. They eat their main meal slowly over several small courses, ideally with much conversation and laughter.
Here are just a few of the Health benefits of the ingredients used in Italian Antipasto Recipes:
Olives are a very good source of monounsaturated fat and a good source of iron, vitamin E, copper, and dietary fiber.
Aside from being rich in vitamins C, A and K, tomatoes contain lycopene, a carotenoid with potent antioxidant and cancer-fighting properties. Lycopene protects cells from oxygen damage, fights colorectal, prostate, breast, endometrial, lung, and pancreatic cancers, and reduces your risk of heart disease.
Hot peppers' fire comes from capsaicin, which acts on pain receptors, not taste buds, in our mouths. Capsaicin predominates in the white membranes of peppers, imparting its "heat" to seeds as well. The capsaicin in hot peppers has been shown to decrease blood cholesterol and triglycerides, boost immunity, and reduce the risk of stomach ulcers. It used to be thought that hot peppers aggravated ulcers. Instead, they may help kill bacteria in the stomach that can lead to ulcers.
