"It's no secret that Italy has some of the world's best food. However, after visiting all 20 regions, I've learned that the country isn't one-size-fits-all when it comes to dining in la dolce vita. Each region has niche dishes and products that locals wear like a badge of honor, like mozzarella di bufala from Campania, pesto alla Genovese from Liguria, and arancini from Sicily."
"From Parmigiano-Reggiano and balsamic vinegar of Modena to Prosciutto di Parma and mortadella from Bologna, Emilia-Romagna is home to some of Italy's most beloved exports. These are just a few of the products that are PDO and PGI-certified. This is a high standard in the world of food that signals an official link between a product and a region. Emilia-Romagna has 44 PDO and PGI products in total - more than any other Italian region."
Emilia-Romagna ranks as a premier Italian food region offering iconic products such as Parmigiano-Reggiano, balsamic vinegar of Modena, Prosciutto di Parma, and mortadella. The region holds 44 PDO and PGI certifications, more than any other Italian region, signaling strong ties between products and place. Renowned restaurants like Osteria Francescana, Al Gatto Verde, and Trattoria da Amerigo showcase regional excellence. The local culinary culture emphasizes care and attention in production and preparation, resulting in consistently high-quality meals. Visitors can taste diverse specialties—from cheeses and cured meats to truffles and tortellini—in concentrated proximity.
