Main course: seafood

One of the key components of Italian cuisine is seafood, a staple of Italian cooking for centuries due to Italy's location on the Mediterranean Sea. With over 4,700 miles of coastline, Italian cuisine has a deep-rooted history of incorporating seafood into its dishes, ranging from simple and traditional to complex and innovative.

You can find some classic Italian main courses like stuffed calamari with white wine sauce, Sea Bream cooked in salt, or baked swordfish, with simple ingredients to enhance the flavor of the sea, and the spectacular French seafood tower platter.

Find also some international dishes with more complex combinations of flavors and textures like seafood paella, cod, scallop fish pie  and Maki Uramaki sushi
