Adriatic Alliance: inland gastronomy from Albania to the Marche

At the international level, what unites the members of the Slow Food Cooks’ Alliance is their efforts to promote ingredients from small-scale, local producers – and that’s true on both sides of the Adriatic Sea, from the Marche to Albania.

With classic recipes often revisited with a twist, the protagonist of this meeting across the seas is Altin Prenga, whose contribution to the relaunching of Albanian gastronomy has been fundamental. Here, he’ll go to back-to-back with Daniele Maurizi Citeroni of Osteria Ophis in Offida, in the southern Marche. Altin, after years of experience accrued abroad, opened his agritourism Mrizi I Zanave and slowly built a business that isn’t just hôtellerie, but which is directly involved in the production of food. Daniele, meanwhile, proposed the traditional values of Marchigiano gastronomy in a modern style, using local ingredients of the highest quality to offer some of the finest contemporary interpretations of the local tradition.

To pair we’ll have wines from the Friends of Slow Wine Coalition.

Tickets are available online until September 21. During the event you can purchase any remaining tickets at the Event Reception in Parco Dora.

Terra Madre Salone del Gusto is in Parco Dora, Turin, from September 22-26, 2022, with over 600 exhibitors and a series of workshops, conferences and tastings that show how we can regenerate our planet through food.
