A truly magnificent view from half-way up the San Salvatore mountain
Stepping back into my childhood... hiking with the family!
Autumn in Ticino is really Summer’s last goodbye, but with lots of added flavour!
The sweet chestnut tree, a common sight in the southern Alps, was once known as the "bread tree", since chestnuts were one of the staple foods of Canton Ticino until the early Middle Ages.
Stocking up on some good weather and good food before the winter arrives.
Ricetta della nonna: Take some yellow pumpkin, cut it to pieces and boil in salted water. Once it is soft enough, blend it with the mixer. Prepare a good broth, and when it is boiling, add to the pumpkin mash. Let cook for a moment, and add some milk and a slice of butter.
Serve with croutons and grated cheese.
Ever seen Umberto Eco's movie: The name of the Rose?
A truly magical corner of Switzerland
