Umbrian recipes

The central Italian region of Umbria is home to some of Italy’s most beloved dishes, especially if you’re a fan of pork, game, lentils and truffles. In amongst the region’s vast woodlands you can find wild boar, and the region is home to more truffles than anywhere else in Italy.

Our collection of Umbrian recipes offers a fantastic grounding in the region’s cuisine. As the birthplace of Porchetta, it is where you’ll find the best examples of this incredible roast pork dish, and the beloved Pasta alla Norcina makes the most of local fennel-flavoured sausages. The famous cured meats from the town of Norcia are stuffed into Umbrian flatbreads to create Torta al testo, and the renowned Castelluccio lentils are turned into a simple soup – Zuppa di lenticchie di Castelluccio – to let their flavour shine.

If you can’t get to Umbria yourself or want to recreate the flavours of this beautiful region after visiting it on holiday, these recipes will bring a flavour of the region into your home kitchen.
