Love Food?...
|
Italy is inseparable from its food. On this culinary journey, you’ll venture off the main tourist trails, to its so called "Food valley" a region characterised by vineyards and crowned with castles, nestled between the snowy shoulders of the Italian Alps and green slopes of the Apennines. You’ll find culinary specialities such as the prosciutto di Parma, Parmiggiano Reggiano and home made tortellini. But you won’t just taste them, you’ll get to see how they’re made to traditional recipes the way they have for generations, and even cook with them yourself. The undeniable highlight is the chance to join an authentic truffle hunt for the day. This ancient tradition has barely changed for centuries and it’s a rare privilege to be allowed to accompany them. You’ll join a local trifolao and his canine companions to hunt for this prized ingredient in the towering, ancient woodlands – an unforgettable day for any gastronomic globetrotter!
