On 2nd August 2002 the Teglio Pizzoccheri Academy was formed, with the aim of protecting and promoting the famous local dish along with all the traditional foods from around the Sondrio Province.

The Academy has the job of undertaking and encouraging any initiatives that could contribute to enhancing knowledge of Valtellinese cuisine and wines, also as an expression of tradition, culture and science.  Together with a group of local merchants and likeminded people we are among the founders.

Since 2013 Pizzoccheri from Teglio has been recognised with the label De.Co. (‘denominazione comunale’, a guarantee of quality from the local council, used in Italy to protect the integrity and quality of local produce)
