Recipes for the Whole Year



The pork season starts between November and December. From the Middle Ages to 1800 pork was far more important than it is today. When fattened enough it ensures wholesome nourishment for the entire family for a long time. No part of it was ever discarded, as farmers from the Parma area are still fond of saying: "it's enjoyed whole, like the music composed by Giuseppe Verdi".
