Emilia Romagna is famous all over the world for Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano, two exquisite hard cheeses used both as table cheeses and within various gastronomic recipes. The region is also famous for homemade pasta, rigorously egg-based, pulled by hand and often stuffed: just think of the tortellini, often seasoned with a meat sauce (Bolognese) or in broth. And speaking of broth, how not to mention the famous passatelli? Even Modena ham, as well as balsamic vinegar, are undisputed symbols of this region which boasts one of the best delicatessens in the world!
