The traditional cuisine of Abruzzo is eclectic, drawing on pastoral, mountain, and coastal cuisine. Staples of Abruzzo cuisine include bread, pasta, meat, fish, cheese, and wine. The isolation which has characterized the region for centuries has ensured the independence of its culinary tradition from those of nearby regions.[1][2] Local cuisine was widely appreciated in a 2013 survey among foreign tourists.[3]
Unlike, say, the cuisines of Naples and Bologna (where Home Food is based), Abruzzese cooking is little known beyond its borders.
