Plus we only eat one big meal a day. That kind of lifestyle doesn't work when we're home and I'm working. Plus it is not the quality of the noodle. I don't know why good pasta dishes here are so different. It's why I need to take a cooking class. The one's I took in Asia made a big difference in how I did that style of cooking.<br /><br />RMG - At least in Italy, it is all about the quality of the ingredient. Every salad I've had here has really good - fill in the blank for the kind of vegetable. Also they don't put lots of things in. Maybe 4 to 5 ingredients like the one pictured. Also, at least in this region, the salads are not dressed. You are given oil and vinegar to dress the salad as you please. I've read but cannot confirm that it is supposed to be about the quality of the oil.de-Ihttp://de-intimidator.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2119052259423589557.post-14747112747414791022016-10-31T20:14:38.440-06:002016-10-31T20:14:38.440-06:00Any tips for those of us who'd like to make a ...Any tips for those of us who'd like to make a great salad?
