Lombardia

Butter, rice and filled pasta

Passport status: Regional Partner Coming Soon

Lombardia is rice-and-butter country. Where pasta appears it is often filled — pumpkin tortelli, casoncelli — and finished with butter and sage rather than olive oil.

Signature shapes: pizzoccheri, casoncelli, tortelli di zucca
Signature ingredients: butter, Grana Padano, buckwheat, pumpkin

Where to taste it in Boston

Regional Partner Coming Soon

This region is still waiting for its Boston table. We are selecting the right restaurant and pasta tradition rather than forcing the wrong pairing.

Menus, ingredients, prices and availability can change. Confirm current information directly with the restaurant before visiting. Speak with the restaurant regarding allergies or dietary restrictions. Pesto Pastaria does not control restaurant preparation or cross-contact.
