For some 'time to head linesman whale image: Italy is united by beauty. It is not an abstraction: the beauty is in all things which we have already spoken (language, art, culture), and many others that still have to talk.
Italy is united by the beauty and the many makers of it. The champions, in fact. Many, in every field. And today is our tribute to two characters whom few know, and few are mentioned: Pellegrino Artusi and Luigi Veronelli. For Italy, united in beauty, it is even more to the table.
Yeah, eat and drink. And do it well. Is not art, and pleasure, and will turn into joy and a necessity of life?

Pellegrino Artusi's work, which deserves statues everywhere along the peninsula, had the effect of the move even more national culinary consciousness: were dozens and dozens of homemade Italian who immediately took up the invitation of genius Romagna , sending recipes, tips, variations on the theme, and contributing to building national encyclopedia of eating well we are all debtors.
With a solid culinary heritage after the war - among many other reconstructions - Another great man began an initially lonely battle to bring the drink to the level of eating, with particular attention to the latter, because - the argument was - the two things that can not be together. This man was Luigi Veronelli.
