  • At the Table
    At the table A small frontier land, the province of Varese is immersed in the north, in the green of the Alps, with the mountains being the backdrop to lakes and hills, while south the beginning of the Po Valley gives life to a fertile and well cultivated area A special shape of the territory that, in addition to offering unique views, is also reflected on the gastronomy and the typical products, including cheese, salami, wine and honey, still today crafted according to ancient traditions and offered in tasty recipes with rice, lake fish, game and “polenta”. Do not miss the “cassoeula” (a mixture of pork meats with cabbage) and the “brüscitt” (beef and horsemeat). Among the typical products, there is the “formaggella del Luinese”, a seasoned cheese, with half hard cheese paste, produced with whole and milk that is 100% goat. It is the first Italian cheese with these characteristics to have reached the “DOP” recognition in 2006: all its production chain must therefore only take place within the Montane Communities of the Province of Varese and some hilly villages, up to the natural limit of the Lake Varese. Another delicacy, the Salame Prealpino Varesino - a typical seasoned raw salami - is made by farmers and small craftsmen working pork from Sempione, passing through Campo dei Fiori, Luino, Valcuvia to Val Veddasca. The Miele Varesino Quality Consortium collects 36 honey producers and protects honey with extraordinary characteristics, even superior to those required by the rules: absolute genuineness, freshness, moisture content at minimum values to avoid degradation, fine and uniform crystallization, responsiveness to organoleptic analysis.

The book was dedicated to Prince Ottavio Gonzaga. This delicious Renaissance-inspired recipe was documented as being served at the Palazzo Ducale by Duke Carlo dei Gonzaga for a special banquet in honor of the Queen of Sweden on Christmas Eve in 1655.
