“Have you thought anymore about that plan to export Romagna cuisine?”, we suggest to that italian singer who intended to try the business of the “piadina” from Romagna.
In Riccione, “Tortelli”, “cappelletti”, “tagliatelle”, mixed grill, and other courses of the traditional cuisine of the Romagna region, are so good and tasty that they overcome all the other menus.
And this because since always the food has a place of honor on the priorities of the inhabitants of Romagna (and the place of honor among the housework of the “azdora”, the housewife of Romagna).
The best recipes of Romagna are handed on from generation to generation and refer, but with thousands of creative ideas, to a native and old basis.
For example, the origin of the “piadina”, the “bread of Romagna” for the poet Giovanni Pascoli, is very ancient.
Similar to the unleavened bread, traditionally the “piadina” is filled with ham, salad and “squacquerone”, the creamy local cheese.
A legend wants instead another traditional course of Romagna to be created by a host who, most telltale than inspired, having glimpsed the navel of a young girl through the keyhole, wanted to reproduce that form.
We are speaking about the “cappelletti” that, born more likely to recover the advanced meat, are a stuffed pasta soup.
Another delicious and poor soup are the “passatelli”, born from the re-use of stale bread, cheese and eggs.
The “tortelli” on the contrary are served dry, with butter and sage, or with meat sauce.
The presence of the sea has deeply marked the cuisine of Romagna.
But the fish cuisine in Romagna is also supported by a no less important meat cuisine.
If the fish is cooked better than elsewhere, with mixed grilled, frying and famous soup, meat (and particularly the beef, of which there is even a native race, the race of Romagna) is the protagonist of fine roasts and excellent grills.
Sangiovese, Albana and Trebbiano, the three great wines of Romagna, accompany the succulent courses that make our lives rich in suggestions.
