Italian kitchens are known for their delicious pasta dishes, such as lasagna, tortellini, and raviolis. The cooks who reign in Italian kitchens are known for their hospitality, as well as their ability to make a large family dinner without making a great fuss. In recent years, cooking show hosts, such as Giada and others, have attempted to showcase Italian hospitality and cooking. An Italian kitchen is outfitted with at least one oven, a range or stove, and refrigerator. Using these basic appliances, Italian cooks create pasta from scratch in a variety of shapes. While in America lasagna is seen as something that a chef has one recipe for, in Italy, every town and city has its own recipe. This means that one Italian kitchen's lasagna may be vary greatly from another Italian kitchen's. Gene
