Cottanello. Festival of Fried Pizza

In the splendid hamlet of Cottanello one of the best known typical Italian “street foods” is celebrated, the delicious fried pizza.

A dish typically popular in southern Italy but universally loved, a simple pizza dough fried in delicious olive oil and savored with a sprinkling of sea salt.

Or stuffed at will with local meats and vegetables or stringy Nutella.

A weekend of tastings and fun, with musical performances for the whole family.
