Cotognata
(marmellata of apples cotogne)
The cotogno apples represented once the most
important cultivation of our zone and Codogno took his name right
from that fruit. That fruit is not good to be eaten uncooked, but
it’s perfect to make jam. ”Cotognata” is delicious,
with a sweet taste, but not too much and with a solid and compact
aspect. It was called Cotognata and it was home-made, there wasn’t
a family that didn’t produced it for herself and for friends
from other places. The cultivation changes and with them also the
traditions and so we are likely to forget this pleasure; some young
ignore the existence of this fruit and we talk about it as a memory
of our childhood. But the Cornali brothers still produce it for the
ones that love the genuine tastes of the oldest traditions.
Out
