The municipality, a hundred miles from the Po Delta, lies in the southeast corner of the province of Mantua, where Emilia-Romagna, Lombardy and Veneto meet. Tiròt is closely associated with the cultivation of its most important ingredient: Felonica yellow onions, a crop that was a significant source of income for many families in the past. The strongly oniony Tiròt has a sweet but intensely sapid flavor. To best appreciate its flavor and the textural equilibrium between crunchy and soft, Tiròt should be eaten fresh from the oven. Traditionally cut into rectangles, it is just a few millimeters thick and deep golden-yellow in color. The Presidium was founded to protect the authentic Felonica Tiròt from imitations, to increase demand for the flatbread and to promote the local area through the revival of the Felonica yellow onion variety. The Presidium promotes a local production chain that links the bakers to farms, and hopes to recover abandoned land and create new jobs.Production areaFelonica municipality, Mantua provincePresidium supported byFelonica Municipality, Proloco Felonica, GAL Oltrepo MantovanoSeasonality: Tiròt is produced throughout the year.
