Bonacini's Italy - Season 1 - Eps 15: Trentino-Alto Adige
In the northeast of Italy lies the majestic Dolomite mountain range, where you will find the region Trentino-Alto Adige. Renowned Chef Michael Bonacini begins his culinary tour in his kitchen with a starter of asparagus with a creamy, tangy egg sauce. Next, he shows viewers how the influence from nearby Austria plays out in the region's cuisine with a hearty bread dumpling topped with the Italian version of sauerkraut. From there, Michael cooks a sumptuous secondo of quail stuffed with sausage, cabbage, and apples, and served alongside plums drenched in red wine and spices. And for dessert, Michael showcases the famous fruit of the region: apples. Every home in Trentino-Alto Adige has their own version of Michael's apple cake flavoured with cinnamon and almond.
