The best spices for Italian cooking

Although I am not Italian, I do have a lot of Italian friends, and many have even thought that I just may be Italian.

I love Italian cuisine. Nothing beats a nice plate of pasta with alfredo sauce that is for sure. However is it the pasta, is it the alfredo that gives it such a great taste? Well to some degree yes but, how about the spices that are used in Italian cooking?

Let me see, I always have extra virgin olive oil, oregano, basil, garlic, onion, tomato paste,tomato and garlic together,tomatos, salt and pepper,Italian seasoning, and a variety of cheeses such as fetta, ricotta, parmesan, and ofcourse I always try to have fresh spinach, and artichokes on hand as well as some olives love olives. Parsley can't believe I almost forgot to add that little gem in there with some thyme ofcourse and some rosemary. The list could go on and on. However these are just my own special ones that I have on hand at or in most cases all the time. So go and make some pasta and enjoy! Buen Apetito!
