Why Italy
Italian Food That Is Easy On The TasteBuds?
I have a very sensitive tongue and can't handle spicy or robust foods. Are there any italian recipes I can make that won't send me running for the milk?

- Try making spaghetti alla carbonara... yummy and not spicy. You can find a recipe at foodtv.com
- Take almost any Italian recipe and cut back on the garlic, onions, and pepper. That is where a lot of the spiceyness comes from. Also, if the sauce is tomato based, adding a whole Bay Leaf or two will help tame some of the acid from the tomatoes. Remove the Bay Leaves before serving - they are almost inedible. A little bit of honey will add a hint of sweetness to a tomato-based sauce. Enjoy!
- Try any recipe but cut back on chili pepper... Tomato sauce is good, carbonara as well (and it is not spicy at all)... Don't try amatriciana and arrabbiata because they are quite spicy. Generally Italian food cooked in Italy is not sooooo spicy....
