This is a story of flour, eggs and heart. This is a story of a humble man, grown up with strong hands and a huge sense of humor. This is the story of Daniele Marziali, the anarchist bread maker. Being a blogger means meet people, man and women who work in this soulful land called Romagna, happy to share their …
It’s early in the morning when we arrive at the Cubo Magico (magic cube), a visit center placed near the end of the Bevano River. This is one of the many access to the Regional Park of Po’ River Delta, a unique wetland that covers 54.000 hectares between Ferrara and Ravenna, two important cities of Emilia Romagna. …
After a summer spent in drinking wine and visiting some local vineyards, I was thinking to stop for a while, trying to understand the evolutions that Romagna winemakers are following and also considering to approach a developing trend that goes towards a more natural production of both wine and food, …
