Umbria

Umbria is an enchanting region rich in pristine landscapes and green, winding valleys. A land of mountains and hills that springs from the heart of the Italian Peninsula. Umbria's meat specialty is pork, which, thanks to the skill of its butchers, is transformed into delicious sausages, excellent hams, and cured meats, best enjoyed with unsalted bread that enhances its flavor. The cheeses are equally as flavorful as the meats, especially the fresh or aged goat's cheeses and the aged pecorino. The lentils of Castelluccio di Norcia are also excellent, having earned the European Union's PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) designation, and are a tasty ingredient in soups and minestrone. Worthy of note is the truffle, the king of this land. The most common variety is the black truffle, widely used in the Norcia and Spoleto areas to season pasta and game. The white truffle is also prized, and can be found in the areas of Orvieto, Gubbio, and the Tiber Valley. Another Umbrian must-have is its golden, fruity olive oil, which has earned the DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) label.
