At table with Messisbugo

One of the 7 videos made for APT Emilia Romagna in collaboration with the Municipality of Ferrara for the project "Feel the History Ferrara capital of the Renaissance" 2021.
This video tells that Cristoforo da Messisbugo, "scalco" and responsible for the refined banquets of the Este duke, was one of the main architects of the popularity of the Este cuisine, with the sumptuous salama da sugo, seasoned with wine, spices and served with mashed potatoes; the Pasticcio di maccheroni, in a sweet shortcrust crust; the cappellacci with pumpkin, then more spicy than today, the Pampapato to finish with sweetness.
