Olive all'Ascolana - Olives from Ascoli

See on Scoop.it - La Cucina Italiana - De Italiaanse Keuken - The Italian Kitchen

This recipe for stuffed olives was a dish I had requested my mother teach me as it is a specialty from my dad’s home town of Ascoli Piceno in the Marche region of Italy. These stuffed olives are truly amazing and after tasting these you will never feel the same about olives again! I plan to make these a lot in the future as they are perfect at a dinner party and will always impress.

Olives are a gastronomical symbol of Ascoli Piceno in Italy.

In the 18th century the ingenious cooks from this small town in Marche had the idea to stuff and fry the big olives, and so came to light a new discovery. This labour intensive specialty used only the ‘Tenere Ascolane’ olives which have a flesh that is particularly soft and sweet and a small stone making it perfect for stuffing.

L’iniziativa è patrocinata dalla Regione Marche, il CONI Regionale, le Province di Ancona e Pesaro e Urbino, i Comuni attraversati, Legambiente Marche Onlus ed il Parco naturale del monte San Bartolo.

E’ organizzata da alcune associazioni aderenti alla FIAB ( Federazione Italiana Amici della Bicicletta ) in collaborazione con una cordata di altre associazioni.

Sarà una festa della bicicletta che culminerà in piazza XX Settembre a Fano. Dovrà essere pero’ anche di stimolo a tutte le amministrazioni a completare le tratte mancanti.

Si invita chi ne condivida lo spirito ad unirsi a questa grande passeggiata in bicicletta.

I punti di ritrovo e gli orari sono elencati in locandina.

Si potrà pedalare anche solo una tratta. Il motto è: “unisciti dove vuoi e pedala finchè puoi e, se il fiato non ti manca, arriva fino a Fano”.

A Fano sarà possibile pranzare al mare, tornare a casa in bicicletta, volendo si potrà rientrare in bici-treno (sui regionali la bicicletta viaggia gratis).

Sarà possibile fare visita alla festa del campo d’aviazione pro realizzazione del parco cittadino; far visita ai monumenti cittadini (Fano romana e Fano Medievale); tempo permettendo si potrà fare anche un tuffo in mare.

A romantic Italian oasis that inspired literary giants

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia

Rare plants, enchanting ruins and the tinkle of waterfalls: the English-style botanical oasis of Ninfa near Rome is a secret idyll billed as “the world’s most romantic garden”.

The exquisite garden dates back to the late 19th century when the aristocratic Caetani family took over lands deserted for centuries including Ninfa, a town that was abandoned in the Middle Ages.

The town once had 150 homes and seven churches — a stopping off point for pilgrims and merchants on the ancient Roman Appian Way — but was ravaged by a civil war before becoming an artistic haven.

“Ninfa is not just a garden, it is a long cultural history,” said Lauro Marchetti, head of the Roffredo Caetani Foundation, which manages the garden some 70 kilometres (44 miles) from Rome.

Paus Pius III, geboren als Francesco Todeschini Piccolomini - Wikipedia

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia

Pius III, geboren als Francesco Todeschini Piccolomini (Siena, 29 mei 1439 - Rome, 18 oktober 1503) was paus van 22 september tot 18 oktober 1503.

Hij was een neef van Pius II, en betoonde zich lange tijd een hervormingsgezinde figuur binnen het college van kardinalen. Zo protesteerde hij openlijk tegen de politieke intriges van Alexander VI. Hij volgde Alexander op en nam ogenblikkelijk stappen ter hervorming van het pauselijke hof. Hij overleed echter binnen een maand na zijn verkiezing aan een beenzweer (volgens sommigen door vergiftiging), tot teleurstelling van de hervormingsgezinden. Zijn opvolger was Julius II.

Belle Epoque by Fratelli Guzzini

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia

The trend of demanding that the objects we surround ourselves with not only perform a specific function but also tell us a story and re-evoke atmospheres and emotions, sometimes taking us to worlds we know only through images that fashion or cinema have suggested, is a very recent one. And in line with this trend, Guzzini has decided to put the creation of a collection with a design inspired by the neoclassic, with thick materials and select colours in the hands of Angeletti Ruzza, to re-create atmospheres that have been lost, but not forgotten. Thus we have Belle Epoque, a range of products for mise en place, which comprises a set of dishes, a vast range of glasses, a carafe and serving tray.
