CISabroad Perugia students you are all invited to our LVL activity this Thursday October 9th! Join us at OSTERIA A PRIORI (Via dei Priori, Perugia) for a wine tasting and aperitivo. You will learn a lot about Umbria region culinary traditions. The cuisine of Umbria originates from its Etruscan roots, and is characteristically simple, relying heavily on seasonal ingredients that can be found growing in its rich soil, swimming in the region’s lakes, raised on local farms, or discovered in the lush forests that cover much of the region. Umbrian cuisine is very rustic, often called “cucina povera”, or peasant cooking, which simply means it is built on traditional dishes created with minimal ingredients and methods of preparation that rely heavily on local products such as grains, vegetables, fresh herbs, and of course olive oil, Umbria’s liquid gold. The traditional dishes of Umbria have been handed down through generations and even today maintain those same principles of simplicity and freshness that originated in Etruscan times. Please, check your email for further details.
