The Sagra del Tortellino Tipico di Reno Centese celebrates one of the most authentic symbols of Emilian cuisine: the "turtlein", small masterpieces of filled pasta that tell centuries of culinary tradition. According to legend, these delicious tortellini were inspired by Venus's navel, and since then they have conquered tables throughout Emilia with their distinctive shape and unmistakable flavor. Since the 19th century, when they became firmly established on regional tables, they represent the excellence of local cuisine.
During the festival, tortellini are prepared by hand following recipes passed down through generations, thanks to the skill of the cooks and volunteer housewives of Reno Centese who jealously guard the secrets of this preparation. Each tortellini is a culinary work of art, the fruit of dedication and love for tradition. The event represents a unique opportunity to savor authentic "turtlein" just as they were made decades ago, in an atmosphere of celebration and conviviality.
The Sagra del Tortellino di Reno Centese is a journey into the heart of Emilia, where fine cuisine and local traditions meet to offer visitors an unforgettable gastronomic experience, celebrating the culinary heritage that has made this region famous throughout Italy.
