About Nonna Genia

The hundreds of recipes of the cuisine from Alba are consequence of the many family traditions and of the research of a group of enthusiasts who operated during the sixties to value Alba, the Langhe region, its natural environment, the culture, products and its gastronomy.
Many recipes come together with memories, fantasies and a fragment of the story of Luciano De Giacomi, pharmacist and gourmet lover of Alba, who was one of the founders of the Famija Albeisa and of the Order of the Knights of the Truffle and of the Wines of Alba."
