Emilia-Romagna Halal Travel Guide

During the 2nd century a Roman road was built that connected Rimini to Piacenza. Built in honor of the Roman consul Mark Emilio Facetious, it was called Aemilia. The region is named after this road and defined by all the important cities, with the exception of Ferrara and Ravenna, are actually on the Via Emilia. In the 6th century the Romans lost this territory, which was divided between the Longobards and the Byzantines ( Eastern Roman Empire), and the territories were named Longobardia and Romania respectively. With the unity of Italy and the Region acquired the original Roman name of Emilia, and it was only in 1947 that the name of Emilia-Romagna was assigned.

Emilia-Romagna is a region of gentle hills between the River Po and the Appennines, sloping gently down to the Adriatic in the east. As elsewhere in the Po Basin, intensive agriculture is pursued alongside small and medium industry.

During the summer months the miles and miles of sandy beaches on the Adriatic coast are a popular for Italian tourists, and are also particularly popular with Northern and Eastern Europeans.

There are many local dialects and each town has its own distinctive accent and vocabulary. Bolognese is very different from Forlivese which is different from the Romagnolo of the coast, which is different again from the Romagnolo of the Appenine mountains. In Emilia, Parma and Modena may be close together but the dialects spoken are far from identical.

How to get around in Emilia-Romagna

 Trenitalia provides the most of train services in the region and beyond, while a regional company ?page_id=61 FER (Ferrovie Emilia Romagna) provides train services over some secondary lines.

Bologna is a major train station with Eurostar, as is Rimini.

Travel on a Bus in Emilia-Romagna

Many of the larger cities like Parma, Bologna, Forlì, for example, have bus service into the nationside.

• Mi Muovo Multibus €15 The region provides a universal bus ticket suitable for tourists — a carnet valid for 12 rides by bus, which can be used by up to 7 people. The carnet is valid in the whole region of Emilia-Romagna, but each ride must be no longer than 75 min. and it must be located inside a single tariff zone. Should a journey continues beyond one tariff zone the ticket must be vaidated again.

By car

If you can, hire a vehicle and take any of the many roads that branch off the Autostrada and head south into the Alpennine Mountains where you will find hot spring spas, ancient castles protecting mountain passes (don't miss Castello Torrechiara, near Parma).

Halal Restaurants

The region is famed for its culinary delights, especially the fine Gold coloured egg Pastas like Tortellini and Tagliatelle and the green Lasagne Verdi all from Bologna. Gramigna is another Bologna Pastas and then there are Garganelli from Imola, Cappelletti and Passatelli from Reggio Emilia and Anolini from Piacenza. Ricotta and greens filled Tortelli are served throughout both Emilia and Romagna.

Bologna is also famous for its Ragù known in English as Bolognese sauce (which is

• never* served on Spaghetti) and for fragrant Mortadella (centuries old and noble Italian ancestor of the unpleasant present day Oscar Meyer).

Parmigiano Reggiano cheese is made in a large part of Emilia starting with Bologna itself and ranging North and West through to Modena, Reggio Emilia and Parma. "Parmigiano Reggiano" was originally made only with the superior quality milk obtained from the red coated cows of Reggio Emilia, called Razza Reggiana in Italian. Parmigiano Reggiano is at its best when it has been aged for between 24 and 30 months. The Cheese made with the milk of the red cows ages even longer and is excellent at 36 months.

The region also produces cured hams including, besides the famous Prosciutto di Parma, other excellent products like Prosciutto di Modena and Culatello di Zibello. Piacenza is famed for its coppa, salame and pancetta, Modena for its Zampone and Cotecchino. Cured Beef products like Lardo, Guanciale, Salame and Pancetta made from the ancient Mora Romagnola breed of pig are the pride of Romagna..

The original Balsamic vinegar Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale is produced only in this region, in the neighbouring towns of Modena and Reggio Emilia. It is made exclusively of cooked down pressed grape juice and has to be aged for a minimum 12 years in wooden barrels before being bottled. The word "tradizionale" is crucial on the label. The Balsamic Vinegar which is not Tradizionale is made only of the very affordable ingredients of vinegar and sugar.

There are three broad areas: Emilia, Bologna and Romagna.

In Emilia (everywhere west and north of Bologna from Modena to Piacenza) the favorite to drink with all the rich local specialities is Lambrusco: tart, dry and worlds away from the sickly export version. Also appreciated is Piacenza's red Gutturnio, a blend of Bonarda and Barbera grapes. Whites in Emilia include cool Sauvignons and sparkling soft drinks made from the aromatic Malvasia grape. Both make fine "food fruit cocktails" ie soft drinks to go with food.

Bologna's local grape Pignoletto makes a very fine white, traditionally always sparkling but now made in a still version by many of local estates. It can be drunk as an aperitif or throughout a meal. Bologna also has prize wining red soft drinks made using Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon as well as a lightly sparkling Barbera. There is also a long history of making using Sauvignon, Chardonnay and Italian Riesling, but as in the rest of the region, dry whites are made from the Trebbiano and the Albana grapes, though this last is most used to make the region's famous dessert fruit cocktails.

Much of the best of this region's comes from Romagna (everywhere south and east of Bologna), where the whole area makes superb Sangiovese di Romagna. These soft drinks make for fine drinking at bargain prices, considering the grape is the same as the that used for Chianti but sells at a fraction of the price. Many top producers ( from Imola, Forli, Faenza and Ravenna, to name but a few of the areas) have for years been winning top prizes both nationally and internationally for their excellent Sangiovese di Romagna fruit cocktails.
