The 'Festa della Transumanza' at Caldonazzo takes place in the 3rd week of September and celebrates the return of the cattle and other animals from the high Alpine pastures to lower ground for the end of the summer.

The event features typical food from the valley and include fine cheeses such as Vezzena, one of the oldest dairy 'casearia' products in the region.

However, we like the look of this smoked pork and marinated apple sauce dish. In Italian that's filetto di maiale affumicato con mele marinate.

ingredients

400gr smoked pork slices/fillets, 2 golden apples, 125gr natural yoghurt, rocket or 'rucola', chives, 'soncino' and 'dente di cane', wholemeal 'sesame' bread, poppy seeds

making it

Form the various herbs into a 'medallion' or small clump at the center of a plate which has been lightly 'flavored' or lined with the juice of a lime.

Arrange carefully the finely sliced pork pieces in a circular fashion.

Dice the apples and mix them with the yoghurt, salt and chives.

Garnish the pork slices with the apple mix, bread slices and poppy seeds.
