Back to school is upon us, bringing with it new beginnings, fresh notebooks, and days stretching out under the golden light of late summer. In this whirlwind, Italian cuisine offers a moment of respite, a return to the essentials, where each dish becomes a tribute to family, local produce, and genuine enjoyment. What if, this year, back to school rhymed with authenticity and simplicity?
Calabria, a cradle of flavors for the start of the new season
Calabria, in southern Italy, is a land of contrasts and light. Here, centuries-old olive trees stand alongside citrus groves, and the sea lends its freshness to the morning markets. It is in this setting that exceptional products are born, such as organic green fruity olive oil , ideal for enhancing a back-to-school salad or grilled vegetables.
Seasonal produce, allies for a balanced start to the school year
As we head back to school and work, choosing seasonal produce means rediscovering the true taste of things. Ripe tomatoes, organic green olives, or even sylla & bergamot honey bring a touch of sunshine to every meal.
Olive oil, the secret to healthy cooking
Bergamot-infused olive oil reveals the subtlety of simple dishes: a drizzle on pasta, a touch on bruschetta, and the magic happens.
Simple Italian recipes for a stress-free start to the school year
Going back to school or work doesn't have to mean rushing. A few easy and quick Italian recipes will help you rediscover the pleasure of cooking without stress.
Pasta with bergamot and fresh tomatoes
Sauté cherry tomatoes in a drizzle of ripe, fruity organic olive oil , add a bergamot zest, then toss with al dente pasta. A fragrant dish, perfect for a weeknight.
Spreads and convivial appetizers
For a back-to-school aperitif, offer a selection of spreads : sun-dried tomato tapenade, pitted black olives in olive oil, served with toasted bread. Italian-style conviviality, in all its simplicity.
Honey, the sweetness of the morning
At breakfast, a spoonful of sylla & bergamot honey on toast or in plain yogurt provides energy and sweetness to start the day well.
Family, local produce and light: the art of experiencing the Italian back-to-school season
The start of the new school year is also an opportunity to reconnect with the Italian way of life: taking your time, sharing, savoring. Around a table, the family gathers, laughter fills the air, and local produce becomes the everyday heroes.
The importance of sharing
A shared meal, even a simple one, becomes a precious moment. Offer a gift box to your loved ones to extend summer and introduce them to the flavors of Calabria.
Italian light on the plate
Every dish, every product, carries within it the light of Italy. The 1L mild olive oil or the organic bergamot juice illuminate everyday recipes.
