Sagra della Pizza Scima

The Sagra della Pizza Scima in Casoli is an unmissable opportunity to discover one of Abruzzo's most authentic culinary traditions. This event celebrates pizza scima, a traditional unleavened white pizza with deep roots in local peasant culture, passed down through generations. The undisputed star of the festival is prepared according to traditional recipes using simple ingredients: flour, extra virgin olive oil, and white wine, which give this rustic dish unique organoleptic characteristics.

What makes pizza scima special is its crumbly and crispy texture, completely different from modern leavened pizza. During the festival, visitors have the chance to taste this specialty in the very place where it originated, surrounded by the warm and authentic atmosphere of Abruzzo's village celebrations. A gastronomic experience that reveals the simplicity and culinary wisdom of rural communities, where food represents identity, tradition, and a sense of belonging.
