Typical Trentino recipes and flavors of Val di Sole

Recipes and flavors of Trentino
Trentino cuisine is born from simple ingredients, mountain products, and recipes handed down over time.
At Maso dei Sapori in Mezzana, in Val di Sole, we want to collect some of the recipes we love the most: traditional dishes, simple ideas to prepare at home, and pairings with speck, cheeses, honey, polenta, and local wines.
