Pomegranate Paccherini 250g
"Punica granatum", originally from Asia Minor (Persia and Afghanistan), the pomegranate and its fruits arrived in Europe thanks to Phoenician merchants. The name derives from “mela” because of its shape and color and “grana” because of the internal consistency of the seeds, which are very similar to those of corn. The protagonist of countless stories and legends, in the Greek world this plant was sacred to Juno and Venus. In ancient Rome, brides braided pomegranate branches into their hair, a symbol of fertility and wealth. The Renaissance was the height of its splendor in art and culture, a theme present in the works of Caravaggio and in the fruits used to give uniqueness to the dishes of Italian and European banquets.
