On Friday, March 28, Monfalcone Geografie hosted Fulvio Marino, a miller, baker, and popular television personality, for a discussion on Italy’s rich bread making traditions.
In his latest book, created in collaboration with Slow Food, Marino explores the diversity of Italian baking, adapting classic regional recipes for home kitchens. His work delves into the history, flour varieties, and leavening techniques from North to South, illustrating how bread reflects the country’s cultural and geographical diversity.
Now in its seventh year, Monfalcone Geografie has established itself as a leading literary and cultural event, emphasizing geography’s role in shaping identity and history. The festival bridges local narratives with global perspectives, reinforcing the idea that understanding the world begins with understanding where we stand.
