Red Garlic - Sulmona

A very important ingredient in the kitchen, but also a natural medicine. Sulmona’s red garlic has antiseptic, expectorant, fungicide and bactericide properties. It also is an efficient regulator for high pressure. To say it all, Sulmona’s red garlic is not only very tasty, but also very healthy.

It is also one of a kind, since you can only find it in the Peligna Valley, and from there it is exported all over the world.
If there was one food that no Roman soldier could do without, that would definitely be garlic. Since then, garlic has been a part of traditional food in Abruzzo throughout the centuries, and even today it is a small but rich treasure in our region.
