Turkish Coffee of Ancona
The cuisine of Ancona is obviously linked to the sea. Fish and more fish dominate the menu, but an interesting left over from history remains in the local coffee.
Marche DOC Wines
The Regione Marche has produced a handy fold-up guide to the DOC wines of the region. It is very useful for quick scanning and to avoid any embarassment before the waiter takes your order. Best of all it has a list of 13 typical Marche recipes with the ideal wine scribbled underneath. For example, a dish of 'Maiale Ubriaco' or 'drunken pig' should be accompanied with a 'Lacrima di Morro d'Alba', while a 'Scampi in Porchetta' should be eaten with a bottle of Falerio dei Colli Ascolani.
Rosso Piceno Wine
A number of interesting tales are attached to Rosso Piceno wine. The best involves Hannibal on his way south from the Alps. The General apparently needed to refresh his troops and found an aged 'rosso piceno' was the perfect 'pick me up'. Pliny the Elder also mentioned the widespread fame of the Picenum vine and reminds us that the wine pre-dated Roman times having been extensively cultivated by the Piceni tribe. The slopes of the Monte Sibillini are where the grape grows best. Its longevity and popularity might also be attributed to Sibilla who was given the gifts of immortality…

Peppe runs the Macelleria Giuseppe Dell'Orso in Loro Piceno, sadly one of the last in this classic Le Marche hill top town, which was once a beacon for the local tradition of cattle rearing. The sepia photos in his…
Brodetto and Marche seafood tradition
The sea off the Marche coast is especially rich with crustaceans and all types of squid, shrimps and cuttlefish. In fact, the region produces some 10% of the country's total fish catch and although much is for export and for sale elsewhere in the country, the local cuisine is not short of a few seafood recipes. 'Brodetto' is the most typical and, as the name suggests, is a type of soup made from the left overs and unwanted scraps that couldn't be sold in the market. Traditionally, it was the daily meal for many workers in the ports and was considered…
White Truffle Festival, Sant'Angelo in Vado
