Lazio
Lazio in tavola
The Lazio region, located in central Italy, has always been a seat of cultural exchange, especially during the Roman Age. Simple pasta sauces, roast meats and pork products dominate the table.
Ricotta Romana DOP
There has been a lot written about ricotta, a cheese that has been made for centuries. There are even sources from the Roman age that document the use of residual whey – left over from making other sheep’s milk cheeses – to make ricotta. However, the Greeks made a similar cheese called “oxygala” that is considered an ancient relative of ricotta.
