Tiramisu is an Italian dessert.

This is a list of Italian foods and drinks. Italian cuisine has developed through centuries of social and political changes, with roots as far back as the 4th century BC. Italian cuisine has its origins in Etruscan, ancient Greek and ancient Roman cuisines. Significant changes occurred with the discovery of the New World and the introduction of potatoes, tomatoes, bell peppers and maize, now central to the cuisine, but not introduced in quantity until the 18th century.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Del Conte, 11–21.</ref>

Italian cuisine includes deeply rooted traditions common to the whole country, as well as all the regional gastronomies, different from each other, especially between the north, the centre and the south<ref>Template:Cite book</ref> of Italy, which are in continuous exchange.<ref>Template:Cite encyclopedia</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Many dishes that were once regional have proliferated with variations throughout the country.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Italian cuisine offers an abundance of taste, and is one of the most popular and copied around the world.<ref name="bbc">Template:Cite web</ref> The most popular dishes and recipes, over the centuries, have often been created by ordinary people more so than by chefs, which is why many Italian recipes are suitable for home and daily cooking, respecting regional specificities.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref>

Italy is home to 395 Michelin star-rated restaurants.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The Mediterranean diet forms the basis of Italian cuisine, rich in pasta, fish, fruits and vegetables.<ref>The Silver Spoon Template:ISBN, 1997 ed.</ref> Cheese, cold cuts and wine are central to Italian cuisine, and along with pizza and coffee (especially espresso) form part of Italian gastronomic culture.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> Desserts have a long tradition of merging local flavours such as citrus fruits, pistachio and almonds with sweet cheeses such as mascarpone and ricotta or exotic tastes such as cocoa, vanilla and cinnamon. Gelato,<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> tiramisu<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> and cassata are among the most famous examples of Italian desserts, cakes and patisserie. Italian cuisine relies heavily on traditional products; the country has a large number of traditional specialities protected under EU law.<ref name="Keane">Template:Cite web</ref> Italy is the world's largest producer of wine, as well as the country with the widest variety of indigenous grapevine varieties in the world.<ref name="inumeridelvino">Template:Cite web</ref><ref name="giornalevinocibo">Template:Cite web</ref>
