When you ask what Turin, Italy means to a foodie or wine lover, many things may come to mind. Aside from the natural beauty of this breath-taking city nestled at the base of the Alps, the region of Piedmont is home to the noble Barolo wine; Risotto Rice and the only place in the world where you can hunt for white truffles.
Join Wine Television to explore the history of Barolo Wine at Catina Scavino di Carigliole Feletto and prepare a traditional white truffle dish at the quaint restaurant, Il Centro. Turin is also the source of the international movement for Slow Cooking. Get right to the bottom of it at the bi-annual food expo for this rapidly growing culinary craze at Salone del Gusto.
