The third Sunday in January marks World Snow Day, established by the International Ski Federation (FIS) in 2012 to teach the next generation to respect the mountain environment. Knowledge and protection of the territory are two fundamental concepts for the Consortium Gorgonzola Pdo, which promotes and defends the characteristics of a dairy product that, as required by the PDO recognition, is produced entirely in its territory of production straddling Piedmont and Lombardy, from the raw material to the packaging.
During World Snow Day, activities are promoted to teach children how to play safely in the snow and have fun practicing winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding, or sledding. These are recreational and healthy activities, but spending a whole day on the slopes can also be extremely tiring. You need to recharge your batteries and get some energy for the next day. That’s why Polenta and Gorgonzola are always available in mountain refuges, but on this important day, we want to offer you a super-delicious gallery of recipes to make at home, perfect after an intense day of skiing. First courses to make on the spot, but also appetizers to prepare in advance for when hunger just can’t wait. Finally, a delicious and innovative version of the classic polenta and gorgonzola.
