Sagra delle Sagne Strasciate (Festival of Dragged Pasta)

On the shores of Lake Turano in Paganico Sabino, the Sagra delle Sagne Strasciate returns, an unmissable opportunity to discover one of the most authentic dishes of Sabine culinary tradition. Sagne are fresh pasta made by hand with timeless gestures: flour, water, and a slow, rhythmic movement rooted in the collective memory of the territory. A humble dish yet rich in meaning, one that tells stories of women kneading dough, of recipes passed down through generations, of communities finding identity and unity around the table. During the festival, sagne become the undisputed stars, dressed with local porcini mushroom sauces and fresh tomato. The atmosphere is that of authentic festivals, where celebration is not a spectacle but a moment of return to our roots. Tables set under the open sky with breathtaking views of the lake, accompanied by music that echoes the evening's rhythm. In every plate served lies the pride of a community choosing to tell its own story through food—an opportunity to rediscover how territory and tradition are one and the same.
