Cosa mangiare a Città della Pieve — Parte 1: zafferano, pici, aglione e torta al testo

What to eat in Città della Pieve? In this first part, we'll take you on a discovery of the most authentic flavors of Umbria's border regions: saffron, pici, aglione, and torta al testo. Città della Pieve is an Umbrian village overlooking the Valdichiana, near Tuscany and Lake Trasimeno. This special location is also reflected in its cuisine: simple, down-to-earth, deeply rooted in the land, the seasons, and the memories of its people. In this video, we'll explore Città della Pieve's saffron, known as Red Gold, one of the region's most prized delicacies. We'll then explore pici, a pasta made with few ingredients but rich in history, and their connection to aglione, a symbol of the cuisine of the border region between Umbria and Tuscany. Finally, we'll delve into the world of torta al testo, one of the most iconic Umbrian dishes: simple, convivial, and made to be shared at the center of the table. Through images, flavors, and local stories, this video not only explores what to eat in Città della Pieve, but also what it means to experience food in a village where every dish retains a connection to history, family, and the land.
