A wide variety of savory pies distinguishes the cuisine of Val Taro:
herbs, potatoes, courgettes, pumpkin, rice, onions, etc.
These are the main ingredients that individually or mixed can be used to open a lunch or dinner or simply as a single dish, as per tradition.
The cakes made with puff pastry garnished have always characterized our kitchen.
They are excellent meals both hot and cold and every season is the right one to taste them.
Born from the simplicity of the peasant, they are the symbol of local cuisine. One of the best known recipes is the herb cake: a mixture of flour, oil, salt and water to which is added a filling based on boiled chard, Parmesan cheese, oil and eggs.
Highly natural and dietary, the herb cake finds variations in Ligurian and Reggio cuisine.
