Almond biscotti with coffee makes for an excellent Italian-style breakfast. Grab yours at Giolitti Deli!
There’s nothing quite like Italian cuisine, and an awareness of Italian food culture and traditions can make enjoying Italian cuisine more interesting. If you’re curious about how you can infuse your life with a little bit of Italy, read on to learn about one aspect of Italian food culture: the light breakfast.
Breakfast in Italy is generally a modest affair because Italians prefer to eat a substantial and hearty lunch. Then, later in the evening, they will take time to enjoy dinner as a social event. Most Italians enjoy a cup of coffee, espresso, cappuccino, or latte with their breakfast, all of which can be enjoyed at Giolitti Deli. You can also enjoy the following two breakfast treats from our store:
Biscotti
Biscotti are Italian almond biscuits originating from Tuscany. They are twice-baked, oblong-shaped, dry, crunchy, and are often dipped in a hot cup of coffee before being enjoyed. Giolitti Deli sells homemade classic almond biscotti that you can enjoy as breakfast… an afternoon snack… or dessert!
Sfogliatelle
This is a shell-shaped, filled Italian pastry. At Giolitti Deli, we sell these pastries in our freezer section!
At Giolitti’s, you can pair your caffeinated selection with our delicious biscotti or sfogliatelle dusted with confectioner’s sugar for a delicious start to your day. Check back here next week for information on how to enjoy your own Italian lunch.
