HERBS & SPICES

Herbs and spices are essential to the character of Italian cooking, adding freshness, fragrance, warmth, and depth without overpowering the natural flavors of the ingredients. Fresh basil, parsley, rosemary, sage, and oregano appear throughout Italy’s regional cuisines, while spices such as saffron, black pepper, chili pepper, nutmeg, and fennel seeds give distinctive character to many traditional dishes.
