You know that pizza joint you like across town that won’t deliver to you because you’re “outside the zone”? Forget them, because you can have real Roman-style pizza, with toppings like black truffle and wild mushroom or classic Margherita, delivered to your door from Italy. Cube Marketplace is like a perfect little alimentari plucked from a hill town and dropped online. A dizzying array of gourmet delights from the boot abound here: artisanal oils and balsamics, gorgeous jars of antipasti and condimenti and seasoned salts that smell like the warm breezes blowing off Tuscan hillsides. Of course, no Italian meal is complete without a nice bottle of vino, and Cube’s selection is exceptional. You’ll find no big-name producers and certainly no raffia wrappings. What you will find is a lovingly handpicked selection of boutique wines from every region in the country. Cube can transform your table into a scene from Under the Tuscan Sun for a fraction the cost of airfare to Roma. (Have you seen the exchange rate lately?)

Tips for Perfect Pasta

Thin, light or creamy sauces go with thin and delicate pasta

Heavier sauces like Bolognese go with thick pasta shapes

Chunky sauce pairs best with pasta with holes or ridges

Store uncooked, dry pasta in your pantry for up to a year

A half pound of spaghetti, linguine or fettuccine will yield four cups of cooked pasta
