Introduction

Do you like to entertain friends and your loved ones? Are you looking for some of the best Italian Appetizers to serve at your next party? If yes, here are some easy finger food recipes you are going to love.

Italian cuisine is known because of its regional diversity, especially between your north and the south of the Italian peninsula. It provides a good amount of taste and is the most popular and copied on earth. It influenced several cuisines around the world, chiefly that of the United States.

It is generally characterized by its simplicity, with many dishes having only two to four main ingredients. Italian cooks rely chiefly on the quality of the ingredients rather than on elaborate preparation. Ingredients and dishes vary by region. Many dishes that were once regional have proliferated with variations throughout the country.

Italian cuisine has developed over the centuries. Although the country known as Italy didn’t unite before 19th century, the cuisine can claim traceable roots dating back to the 4th century BCE. Food and culture were very important in those days as we are able to see from the cookbook (Apicius) which goes back to first century BC. Through the centuries, neighbouring regions, conquerors, high-profile chefs, political upheaval, and the discovery of the brand new World have influenced its development. Italian food began to form following the fall of the Roman Empire, when different cities started out to split up and form their own traditions. Many types of bread and pasta were made, and there is a variation in cooking techniques and preparation. The united states was split. Regional cuisine is represented by a number of the major cities in Italy. For instance, Milan (north of Italy) is well known because of its risottos, Bologna (the central/middle of the united states) is known because of its tortellini and Naples (the south) is well-known for its pizzas and spaghettis.
