Piedmont
Quick answer
Piedmont, in Italy's northwest, is famous for white truffles, Barolo wine, agnolotti and vitello tonnato.
Alba's white truffles are shaved over tajarin, thin egg pasta made with many yolks. Agnolotti del plin are small pinched meat-filled pasta.
Bagna càuda, a warm garlic-and-anchovy dip, and vitello tonnato, cold veal in tuna sauce, are classic antipasti. Turin created gianduja chocolate.
