Arancini - Italy
Italy has its fair share of mouthwatering dishes, but one food you must try are its famous Sicilian arancini, aka deep-fried rice balls stuffed with a variety of tasty fillings. You can't go wrong with the classic al ragu option, which is slow cooked meat in seasoned tomato sauce. Some places use cured meats or 'nduja (spicy spreadable pork sausage), and there are plenty of vegetarian choices like mushrooms, eggplant, or spinach with bechamel sauce. Some come in round, golf ball-sized shapes, while others have a more conical appearance.
Where to eat: One of the best places to try this Italian specialty is Pasticerria Savia in Catania, a legendary old-school pastry shop founded in 1897.
