L'Oltrepò in tavola

Un viaggio nelle eccellenze enogastronomiche dell'Oltrepò Pavese

L'Oltrepò Pavese è una terra a grande vocazione enogastronomica. Seconda area al mondo, dopo la Borgogna, per produzione di vini Pinot nero. In zona vanta ben trentasei vini DOC. 

La cucina tradizionale è legata ai prodotti del territorio, in particolare ai funghi e alla carne di  maiale. Uno dei cibi più apprezzati e famosi è il Salame di Varzi DOP che, come per i Ciccioli, viene realizzato anche con le parti più nobili del maiale.

Un posto di primo piano spetta al Risotto alla vogherese, con i suoi particolari peperoni e alla Zuppa alla Pavese, con pane e uovo fresco sopra. Ma la ricca gastronomia dell'Oltrepò Pavese vanta molte altre prelibatezze. Scopritele in gallery!
