At Modus Milano, under the guidance of renowned chef Paolo De Simone, the principles of the Mediterranean Diet come to life, offering gastronomic experiences that celebrate health and taste. The Mediterranean Diet is, in fact, not only a food model, but a lifestyle recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Heritage of Humanity. Paolo De Simone, recently appointed Ambassador of the Mediterranean Diet, enhances its essence by focusing on the quality of the ingredients, fresh and genuine, reflecting the tradition and the link with the Cilento land and sea.
The ingredients of the Mediterranean Diet represent the beating heart of Modus cuisine. Fresh, seasonal vegetables are the undisputed stars of the Mediterranean Diet. At Modus Gastronomia Milano, they are carefully selected, favoring local and seasonal products. Eggplants, zucchini, tomatoes and peppers are transformed into iconic dishes such as caponata, grilled vegetables and nutritious velvety soups, perfect for every palate.
And then the oily fish, a gift of the Mediterranean, rich in Omega-3, such as mackerel, anchovies and sardines, is essential for a balanced diet. Thanks to Paolo De Simone’s skill, these raw materials are enhanced in creative recipes that respect the authentic flavor of Cilento. Quality carbohydrates, then, such as bread, pasta and rice are essential in Mediterranean cuisine, but always with attention to balance. Modus Milano uses artisanal flours and products from small suppliers, offering fresh pasta dishes, refined risottos and naturally leavened bread.
And again, one cannot talk about Mediterranean cuisine without mentioning the king of the table, Extra Virgin Olive Oil. At Modus Milano, every drop of oil comes from selected producers, guaranteeing a healthy and flavor-packed condiment. Finally, dried fruits and legumes. Rich in fiber and protein, legumes such as chickpeas, lentils and beans are present in many traditional dishes. Dried fruits, such as almonds and walnuts, are a crunchy and healthy addition to salads and desserts, also available in Modus’ Milan catering service.
But Modus Gastronomia Milano is not only an excellent gastronomy, but a place where tradition meets innovation. Thanks to Paolo De Simone, every dish tells a story, respecting the values of the Mediterranean Diet. In addition, the catering service in Milan makes it possible to take this excellence everywhere, making every event special.
