About Pizzoccheri
Wikipedia Article About Pizzoccheri on Wikipedia

Pizzoccheri are a type of tagliatelle pasta made with buckwheat flour and usually served with butter and cheese from Valtellina. Pizzoccheri can be easily made, similarly to tagliatelle, by hand. They can also be found pre-made.

In Teglio, where pizzoccheri are said to originate, two fairs take place: La Sagra dei Pizzoccheri, celebrated in July and the festival of The Golden Pizzocchero, celebrated in September.
