Store It Foods

If you visit a restaurant that specializes in authentic Italian cuisine, you might be surprised to find a dearth of Americanized Italian food. Many restaurants in the New World make a mockery of genuine Italian cooking, dishing out massive portions of carbohydrate-rich food with little to balance it all out. In Italy, food is generally served in multiple courses, but the portions are much smaller.

And boy do Italians know how to make pasta sauce. A real Italian chef will typically offer two options: a red sauce and a white sauce. Marinara sauce features tomato as its main impetus and is does not include meat. An alfredo sauce will be anchored with cream, butter and parmesan, and it is almost always served over a bed of vegetables and lighter meats. The prospect of making homemade sauce may be harrowing for some, but it is actually quite simple with a Roma sauce maker.
