Schisciafarniscula

Schisciafarniscula—a name that alone evokes the essence of Lombard culinary tradition—is a genuine celebration in Cassolnovo where the undisputed star is the schiscia, a flat and crispy flatbread representing centuries of Pavan farming wisdom. Served simply to enhance its authentic goodness or filled with the territory's finest cured meats and cheeses, this local specialty pairs beautifully with hearty, genuine dishes like polenta with mushrooms, braised meats, and stews that taste of home and memory. This is far more than gastronomy—it's an opportunity to rediscover the rhythms and flavours of times past in a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Beyond the culinary delights, Cassolnovo offers folk music and evening entertainment that bring the celebration to life, while children enjoy games and activities designed just for them. Wines from the Pavan hills complete the experience, accompanying each course with the character of a region that has preserved its identity. This festival represents a genuine commitment to keeping the culinary and cultural traditions of the Pava region alive—a precious occasion to gather around a table and rediscover the pleasure of simple, authentic gestures. A small craft market showcases the traditional handiwork of local artisans, adding to the festive atmosphere.
