- A typical symbol of Easter in Italy is a cake in the shape of a dove - colomba . The Easter dove - colomba pasquale - has its roots in the distant past. Around the middle of the sixth century a raised ring-shaped loaf was offered to Alboin, the king of the Lombards, who was besieging the city of Pavia. The ingredients (eggs, flour, and yeast) were simple compared to those of today, which include butter, sugar, and candied fruit.

- Many regions claim to be the home of gelato (ice cream), but in fact it seems to have spread from Sicily, after being introduced there by the Arabs. Indeed ice cream is believed to have originated from the ancient sorbet - from the Arabic word "sherbet" - which was invented by them to combat the searing heat of their desert home and taken by them to Sicily, where local ingredients were added. Sicilian ice cream is still renowned today, both for the exotic flavors ranging from mulberry to prickly pear and for the way in which it is served, in cones or cups but also sandwiched in the middle of a brioche. Throughout Italy, ice cream is served not in scoops but with a spatula, with the result that the size of the portions varies and depends on the whim of the person who is serving.

- Every fall in the misty Langhe region, men and dogs set out in search of the tartufo bianco (white truffle) of Alba, one of the most highly prized delicacies of Italian cuisine. It is an ingredient in Piedmontese fondue, and is eaten with tagliatelle, polenta and many other dishes, accompanied for preference with one of the great red wines of the area, barolo , dolcetto , or even barbera . The tartufo is a fungus that lives underground whose fruit, in the form of a tuber, consists of a fleshy mass and whose color, perfume, and flavor depend on the tree with which it lives symbiotically, principally poplar, lime, oak, and willow.
