What are some italian foods besides pizza and pasta?!
Answers:
Although there is so much more to Italian cuisine than pasta and pizza... Pasta truely is a diet staple.. Much like Rice for the Japanese and Bread for the British
There are alot of other Italian meals that not many people know about
Stuffed artichoke (my favourite), eggplants and capsicum.. Mainly with breadcrumbs, mince, parmasan cheese n herbs
Risotto! Seasonal vegatables are mixed in with it...
Eggplant parmigana
Chicken Caccitore
Pizzaiola
Roast goat with breadcrumbs, rosemary n parmasan cheese
I could go on

Italian food got PLENTY dishes with meat and fish as basing...not even mention the vegetables, fantastic cheese also (parmigiano, mozzarella, burrata) and the dessert...
by the way TIRAMISU is a famous italian dessert, everybody knows!...why the HELL should be french? Do it sound as a french word? Or yo are just a little bit racist towards italian? I reckon is the second answer...I guess that if you study a bit of italian you could even translate it....and I am sure You will find lots more apart the godfather stereotypes, if I was you I would stop to be stucked in Hollywood products, or I would think you only eat food with smelly curry...
