Brescia dirty soup, Brescia spit, polenta, dessert, coffee, water and wine: this is the menu planned for the cultural and gastronomic evening organized byAssociation for the Defense and Promotion of Rural Culture (ACR) a Polaveno, to be precise in the hamlet of San Giovanni (province of Brescia). The spit is once again the center of attention and it is no coincidence that the title of the event is “Spiedo Bresciano: our history, our pride!”.
The appointment was set for Saturday 2 July 2016 starting at 20. The seat is instead that of the Oratorio San Giovanni di Polaveno. Also in May the initiative was promoted, on that occasion in Nave (the province is always that of Brescia), without forgetting the stage of Ospitaletto last 11 June. The ACR is committed to preparing this typical dish, in order to protect it from constant attacks by institutions, politics and the media.
The spit seems destined to disappear, but all these evenings are essential for its survival. Several members of the association's management committee will intervene in Polaveno to illustrate the regional draft law for the “Enhancement of local culture and traditions and of the Brescia spit”.
