Eat Often

Italian cookingItalians live for food. They don't count calories, nor do they devour their food in ten seconds. Eating is a slow, glorious ritual that should be treasured. You should savor every bite and take your time enjoying it. Your food should be fresh and carefully crafted, but this doesn't mean all Italians can afford the "best of the best" gourmet food. They just know what ingredients matter, and so even spaghetti takes on a whole new flavor in the hands of a real Italian. Appreciate every moment you get to eat and make every meal special. It's all about portion control. Italians don't binge; they have a little bite of everything, enough to satisfy their cravings and still maintain the ideal figure.
