Typical dishes:
In the gastronomic tradition of
the populations placed on the
coast of the Marche prevails
the fish and there is to choose
between soups, mixed grills,
fries, accompanied by wellknow valuables doc wines. The
well-known dish is the
brodetto.
There are many way to cook it:
the one of Ancona, of San
Benedetto del Tronto, of
Civitanova Marche, of Fano, of
Porto Recanati, of Porto San
Giorgio, etc. The difference is
not in the types of fishes used,
but in their different quality of
aromas, vegetables and
tomatos, which introduces
dominant characteristics of the
differents places of origin. We
should not forget the
stoccafisso of Ancona, which
offers one of the best italian
version.
