Where to eat in Montefortino: what to try
The signature dish is cucciòle, mountain snails in their shells. They are cooked with wild fennel and tomato, or shelled with potatoes. Every year, in early September, the Sagra della Cucciola (snail festival) takes place. Another festival, the Sagra degli Strozzapreti, is held in August. Dates may change from one edition to the next and should be checked before planning the visit.
The woods and mountains provide black and white truffles and mushrooms, including porcini, russula and field mushrooms. Truffle gathering in the area has a long tradition. Wild boar and Sibillini lamb also appear on the table, often with aromatic and wild herbs.
Local farming also produces the red apple, as well as oils and cheeses that accompany the traditional cooking.
