The gourm.itpedia word of the week is:
Preserve
/con·sèr·va/
Food, especially vegetable food, treated and packaged in such a way that it can be stored for a long time without its characteristics being altered.
Vania Vicentini, a collaborator of Filotto Senga, explains how her company manages to produce long-lasting, km0 preserves without the addition of any preservatives: just great expertise in the preparation and careful selection of raw materials.
Gourm.itpedia is a project for the dissemination of Italian gastronomic knowledge by gourm.it, a consortium of Italian producers.
