Sagra della torta al testo

In the green heart of Umbria, in Selvarelle Alte di Acquasparta, the Sagra della Torta al Testo returns, an unmissable opportunity to celebrate one of the most authentic symbols of regional cuisine. From July 4-13, 2026, this small village transforms into a showcase of genuine flavors, where the traditional torta cooked on testo—that flat focaccia prepared on a stone slab according to ancient methods—becomes the undisputed queen of the festival. Every bite tells a story of craftsmanship, carefully selected ingredients, and a recipe passed down through generations.

Torta al testo comes in endless varieties, all irresistible: from the classic version with sausage and sautéed vegetables, to prosciutto and pecorino, from roasted pork to lighter vegetarian options to satisfy all palates. But the festival doesn't stop there: homemade pasta courses, traditional side dishes, and Umbrian desserts complete a gastronomic offering that celebrates the excellence of the local territory, with zero-kilometer ingredients and recipes that smell of home.

The atmosphere is that magical one of village celebrations, where folk music accompanies the evenings, entertainment involves young and old alike, and a sense of community wraps every visitor in a warm embrace. The Sagra della Torta al Testo is an invitation to rediscover the beauty of simplicity, to pause and savor the authentic taste of a tradition that knows no time.
