Bringoli Festival
Sagra dei Bringoli in Lugnano in Teverina is a vibrant celebration of Umbrian culinary traditions, highlighting the cherished hand-rolled pasta that is a hallmark of the region’s cuisine.
This festival is dedicated to bringoli, a traditional hand-rolled pasta that resembles pici and umbricelli, made simply from flour and water.
Bringoli has rich roots in Umbrian culinary history, especially in rural areas where hearty, straightforward dishes were vital to daily life. The pasta’s origins are intertwined with the region’s agricultural background, where wheat was a primary crop, and fresh pasta was a regular feature at family meals.
Many of the festival activities, including pasta-making demonstrations, are conducted by local residents, fostering a friendly atmosphere where visitors can engage with those who have been crafting and enjoying bringoli for generations.
The festival takes place in Lugnano in Teverina, a charming hilltop town that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, enhancing the event’s appeal. The town’s historic streets and squares create a stunning backdrop for the festivities, making it a must-visit celebration in Umbria.
