Emilia-Romagna in a pasta shell.

We have now left Emilia Romagna. We didn't have WiFi access at our farm there, so I haven't had a chance to post pictures in a while. So this is mostly a picture post. I included some pictures of the food we ate in the region. Emilia-Romagna is an area of Italy that everybody has heard of, but most don't think to visit. It is north and west of Tuscany. The main cities make me hungry, because they are all the names of food. Parma in the north, known for Parmesano Reggiano and Prosciutto Di Parma. Modena in the middle, known for balsamic vinegar, and Bologna in the south, known for tortellini and pasta ala bolognese. The pictures below are of some of these foods. Tortelli, tortellini, pizza with prosiciutto, and there's a picture of the balsamic vinegar production at the farm where we stayed. It was a delicious time in Emilia-Romagna.
