The gastronomic tradition is characterized by simple preparations, with ingredients from the countryside and easy to find.
Among the most representative recipes of this tradition are: pappa al pomodoro and ribollita, both made with bread without salt, known in slang as “silly”.
Speaking of Tuscan cuisine, however, it is impossible not to remember the universe of typical cheeses and sausages: from Pecorino di Pienza to Finocchiona, passing through the cold cuts of Cinta Senese (made with the meat of the black pig raised on the hills of Siena).
The meat, cooked in any way, is among the delicacies that anyone going to Tuscany must necessarily taste.
Gourmets cannot miss the famous Florentine steak, prepared with Chianina beef, typical of the Val di Chiana, whose name recalls the particular cut and cooking, absolutely rare.
Tuscan cuisine has as a distinctive feature the sacredness of bread, but also pasta wants its part, as in the best Italian gastronomic tradition.
The fresh pasta characteristic of this region are the pici, while dry pasta is accompanied by tasty meat sauces.
