Tuscan Cuisine
Tuscany is the heartland of Italy as Tuscany Ristorante is for Leichhardt with its foods reflecting the very best of Italy’s home cooking, it’s roots originating from cucina povera, or peasant cookery. The Tuscans are well known for their superior yet simple dishes, which arise from using the freshest available products. The Tuscan cuisine is an ancient and skilled cuisine made up of tasty ingredients that are never excessively elaborate; in fact the dominant character of our cooking is certainly its simplicity. Simplicity however that is more apparent than real, in that each dish is made up of well balanced portions, never inspired by haste, but by patient attention to the choice and the amalgamation of the ingredients. They believe in enhancing the purity and natural flavor of ingredients, rather than trying to camouflage with excess sauces and seasonings.
Even the classical French cuisine, which everyone admires, for the most part has its origins in Firenze, transported by the chefs who followed the French court of Caterina de'Medici in the 1500s.
The excellence of Tuscan cooking is recognised everywhere, in so much as that it is counted among the first in the world
