Who has never tried this delicious and very creamy cheese that you can find in Tiramisù and that's also eaten for Christmas? :)

Italian Christmas Desserts - Panettone

Christmas is approaching and in Italy we have two main typical desserts: panettone and Pandoro. There is always a fight among those who prefer Panettone and say it’s the best and those who instead consider Pandoro the best. The two desserts aren’t so different and although I’m not a huge fan of any of them, if I had to choose...I’d go for Panettone.

Anyway, this post won’t be about my personal tastes but it wants to briefly explain you what Panettone is. Other posts talking about Pandoro and the unmissable Mascarpone cream will follow. :)

6 Italian dishes...that no one eats in Italy (1st part)

Hawaiian pizza, chicken Parmigiana, Alfredo sauce...I am sure you all know these dishes pretty well and I am also quite sure you think they’re all typical Italian dishes. Sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not true. When you come to Italy you won’t find them in our restaurants and we don’t cook them at home. You may ask yourself “Then why do they have Italian names or look sooo Italian?”.
