In Ripatransone, a charming hilltop village known as the 'Belvedere del Piceno', the Sagra della Polenta al Sugo di Castagne celebrates the authentic autumn flavors of the Marche region and its rural heritage. This festival pays homage to ingredients that were once staples of peasant cooking, bringing back the comforting cucina povera of days gone by along with the convivial spirit typical of local village fairs. The star of the weekend is polenta served with a savory chestnut sauce, a recipe pairing simple cornmeal with earthy woodland notes. Alongside this specialty, food stalls also serve polenta with mushrooms as well as sausage with chestnuts, highlighting the cherished home-style recipes of the Piceno area.
