What can one say about Salone del Gusto? The world’s largest artisanal food fair is how I describe it. We attempted to have a quick look round in an hour or so, but barely managed to tour one small corner. An interesting corner though.
We started in Sardinia, where there were lots of interesting shapes and sizes of cheese:
Sicily had lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of things on offer as well, including pastries and cheese.
The caciocavallo stall was nicely decorated:
They don’t hesitate to choose interesting ways to wrap their cheeses either:
The capers were incredible:
The salt was stupendous:
The plums were plump and perfect.
We passed France which had stunning cheeses of many shapes
The nougat was popular,
but the armagnac stand is going to be hard to pass by again. I feel sure my bags are going to be heavier by at least one bottle.
