Italian region
Campania
Quick answer
Campania is the home of Neapolitan pizza, buffalo mozzarella, San Marzano tomatoes and dried pasta from Gragnano.
Naples gave the world pizza napoletana, and the region's volcanic soil grows San Marzano tomatoes and lemons for limoncello along the Amalfi Coast.
Gragnano, near Naples, has made dried durum-wheat pasta for centuries. Mozzarella di bufala Campana, made from water-buffalo milk, is protected by a DOP.

Quick answer
How long do you grill Italian sausage?
Grill fresh Italian sausage 12 to 16 minutes over medium direct heat (about 350–400°F), turning every 3 to 4 minutes, until the centre reads 160°F. On a two-zone fire, cook 10 to 12 minutes on the cool side, then finish 2 to 3 minutes over the flame for colour.
