Rome Farmers Market
In mid September 2009, the 'Farmer's Market' in Rome was set up. Following many successful markets elsewhere, the old slaughter house or 'ex mattatoio' in Testaccio now houses this weekly event.

Bread from Genzano
The famous bread of Genzano (pane casareccio di Genzano IGP) located in the Roman Hills is not for delicate types, especially when the sturdy crusts are embracing a slice of delicious porchetta or roasted ham from Ariccia. It is made from soft wheat flour, water, natural yeast and salt and its distinctive flavor is due to the quality of the ingredients and the fine local air which wafts in from the nearby Lazio coast. Its origins are from the tradition of preparing bread at home. Once prepared with natural yeasts and then shaped into loaves or “bighe,” the dough is…

A short profile of 'Sora Anna' of San Cesareo. Anna Dente was born in 1943 in the small rural hamlet of San Cesareo near Zagarolo in the province of Rome, a rich agricultural zone. Her mother and father ran a local butchers shop or 'norcineria' as well as a few hectares of land producing grain, fruit and grapes, while her grandfather worked as a young man in the slaughter house of Monte Compatri. Her grandmother was a 'ciambellaia' or biscuit maker and introduced Anna to the the use of wild country herbs for use in bread, cakes and liqueurs.
The Perfect Cappuccino coffee
Once you've learned how to spell cappuccino the next step is learning how to make the perfect cup of Italian morning coffee. You might think that every Italian coffee bar makes a decent cappuccino drink, but far from it, which proves that making one is more of an art of a science. With this in mind, and especially the scalding, colored froth massacres you might order from your favorite international coffee chain, the President of the Green Party in Italy has proposed making cappuccino a DOC, like wine and olive oil. This would certify your Italian style morning drink as…
