BuyFood Toscana is an event organized by the Region of Tuscany and PromoFirenze, aiming to the promotion of the Tuscan PDO and PGI products to international buyers and journalists. They asked us to introduce the audience to some of the best PDO and PGI products of Tuscany, through stories, recipes and some tastings. This is our presentation, a marvellous food tour through the most extraordinary products of Tuscany, rich, packed with information and recipes.
