[Thoughts on the Table – 44] A Culinary Tour of Abruzzo with Domenica Marchetti

Food writer and cookbook author Domenica Marchetti is back on the show to talk more about her mother's native land - the Abruzzo region in central/southern Italy. In the episode, Domenica paints a colorful picture of the region - from its geography which spans from majestic natural parks on the Apennines to beautiful beaches on the Adriatic coast, to its people, and - naturally - to its traditional food.

Domenica also describes a culinary tour of Abruzzo that she organizes along with her partners at Abruzzo Presto. This year's edition will take place on September 18-25, 2016. If you are interested in a preview of the tour and if you happen to be in Philadelphia, on April 14 Domenica and her partners will present a " Virtual Culinary Tour " dinner, with dishes featured on the tour and cookbook giveaways.
