Bartolaccio

In Forlí-Cesena, enjoy bartolaccio, a typical pasta of Tredozio comune. Bartolaccio is a large, folded pastry filled with pancetta, potatoes, and cheese, then grilled until golden brown and crispy. This specialty is usually made in autumn, especially for the Bartolaccio Festival.

Paciàrle

Paciàrle, another delicacy of Tredozio, is reminiscent of a polenta, served with beans and leeks, rather than the traditional ragù.

Tardura

Tardura is Forlí-Cesena’s version of passatelli, made with a simple dough of breadcrumbs, cheese, and eggs that are pulled rather than worked with a special tool. The dough is still served in meat broth for a simple yet tasty soup.
