The Italian Pantry is a beautifully presented delicatessen full of authentic food products brought to you all the way from bella Italia! Coffee is another staple of the Italian pantry that very few people in Italy won’t have it on their kitchen shelves.

If you love Italian food and you like preparing it at home, you will need a few staple ingredients, which are always handy to have in your pantry, whether you want to make a simple pasta al pomodoro, or fancier creations using the wonderful foods and flavors of Italian cuisine. The open-plan living space is bright and provides guests with ample space to unwind and host if they wish. Flours made from soft wheat are labeled “grano tenero” (soft grain) and are used for bread and pastries.Chiacchiere are one of the most famous Italian pastries enjoyed all across the country during carnival (just before lent).

A maritozzo is an ancient delicacy from Rome consisting of a sweet brioche bun split down the middle and filled with whipped cream.From the balcony, you can gaze over the oak and pine tree-top canopy to view the glistening water of Poole Harbour beyond. Sometimes I'll only have 3 or 4 ingredients in my pasta dishes so it's super important all the ingredients are high quality. Other fresh spices and herbs to have in your Italian pantry are Parsley (Prezzemolo), Rosemary (Rosmarino) and Sage (Salvia), dry Oregano (Origano), Thyme (Timo), Nutmeg (Noce moscata), and White Pepper (Pepe bianco). If you don't happen to have a free day (and an ample tomato harvest) to gather the family to make and bottle your own, then this rich, cooked tomato concentrate is the next best thing. But you’ll also find variations such as hazelnut, chocolate, pistachio and almond for a tasty dessert or mid-afternoon snack.

Tomatoes are rich in vitamins and minerals, making them precious for vitality, growth and organic balance. Certainly one of the prettiest types of Italian pastries, zeppole are traditionally prepared for Festa di San Giuseppe (the Feast of Saint Joseph) on March 19, which is also Italian fathers’ day. Often when someone’s visiting, you would offer them a caffè, made with ground espresso beans in a stove-top moka.
