What is cicatiello?

Cicatiello is the signature dish of the feast of San Martino Valle Caudina, tied to the rural traditions of the Caudina area. It's a dish that has been handed down for generations in the village and attracts visitors from across the province every year.

The festival is a time when the community gathers around this dish, with stands run by families and local associations. A simple format that focuses entirely on cuisine and hospitality.
