About Piedmont's Cuisine

Piedmont is home to many of the top-quality products essential to achieving authentic Italian dishes.

Piedmont’s local produce ranges from the best rice in Europe to fantastic mushrooms. The huge variety of risotto and mushroom recipes in Piedmont bears testimony to this.

Some of the other world-class products include the famous truffle from Alba and the renowned hazelnuts.

Piedmont wine is among the best of Italian wines, and the grape varieties found on the Langhe Piedmont wine route are exceptional. Details on the wines can be found here. The pairing of wine and food in Piedmont is second nature; they have been producing the same varieties of wine, and eating the same dishes for centuries so they no what goes together instinctively. They don't need any expert to tell them.

One caveat though, fail to use 100% authentic Italian ingredients, though, and the results will disappoint.

The Recipes

Piedmont cooking includes some of the most complex Italian recipes, requiring time and precision to make perfectly; an example is the bollito misto.

On the other hand, there are some other fairly simple but extremely delicious recipes. For example the best Italian chicken recipe, chicken Valdostana, comes from Piedmont, and it is very easy to make.
