The markets......

I love Italy for it's markets.They are everywhere,from the large indoor markets to the tiny corners store shops selling fresh fruit and vegetables,beautiful seafood,various cuts and choices of meats.I will miss the smell of the large lemons,the soo delicious tomatoes you can eat like a snack,or how about the live octopus you can purchase,the just caught mussels with the smell of sea.Huge bundles of dried herbs,the ever sweet peaches,too many choices of pastas,oh and the tuna i will miss the tuna! Italy for me has changed the way i see food,how just simple ingredients but fresh ingredients can make great dishes.But of course you can't prepare great dishes without real olive oil!You can eat it with a spoon.drizzle it on desserts or just toosed in a sald with a hint of lemon.Dam the markets,the markets,the markets!
