THE BRACCIO CAKE

Launched by Perugia1416 in collaboration with the Università dei Sapori, it aims to urge participants to inform themselves not only about agricultural products referable to the time before others, now widely consumed but then not known in the old continent, arrived from distant lands; but also on the recipes and ways of preparing and cooking food in the early 15th century. Cultural study, therefore, but skill, and desire to get involved. Besides the philological correspondence it is important that the product can be reproduced.

A jury of experts announce the winning recipe. In previous editions Perugia1416 has awarded a ceramic plate decorated by the artisan-artist Maria Antonietta Taticchi:
