Italia Squisita: Lasagna in an Emilian Michelin Restaurant with Massimo Spigaroli - Antica Corte Pallavicina*

Jun 4, 2021 • The Aquadichef contest is back, a competition addressed only to professionals that continues to inspire many chefs and Italian cuisine lovers. The absolute protagonists of the 2021 edition will be lasagna (“lasagne” to be precise!), in all possible forms, without preclusions or limits to experimentation. To launch the contest, we could only start from Emilia, inside the Parma Food Valley: Massimo Spigaroli, a member of the jury, presents the classic version from the Antica Corte Pallavicini, one of the most historic and scenic restaurants in Italy. Echoes of the composer Verdi, stories from Emilian aunts, self-produced raw materials, and a lot of love for yet another cosmopolitan dish that has come to life in the Bel Paese.
