I cook vegetarian Italian food myself often but honestly find that the cuisine is still very much meat based. Good luck finding a vegetarian main dish ("secondo") in Italy (outside of Milano).
- telesilla 7y agoRisotto al funghi/asparagus/squash... Pasta con pesto/pomodoro/grilled veges/spinach/cheeses.. Aubergine Parmigiana Pizza/Calzone.. Minestrone/Zuppa de../Ciammotta I mean, that's without even looking at a cookbook. I find Italy itself (particularly more southern) far more accommodating to my diet than Italian restaurants outside of Italy.
- namdnay 7y agoUnless specified, the risottos will have been made with meat stock, even if they’re vegetable risottos. It just tastes better Pasta I agree but that’s primo Aubergine Parmigiana is not very common, but indeed would fit Pizza in a pizzeria yes, but not a restaurant Soups indeed, but they would also be primo. And many will have chicken stock I agree that southern Italy will be easier, more Mediterranean
