When you go to the mountains in the direction Moena o Canazei it is inevitable to notice the writing every now and then Apple, or apples. We know very well that the apples of Trentino Alto Adige are very well known, so why not stop along the way in these "stalls" on the side of the road?
Last week I stopped like this in the "Point of sale”(On the road) of the farm Bankelhof in Montagna, a few kilometers from the A22 Egna-Ora motorway exit. Honestly, calling them baracchini, Romagna-style, is not exactly elegant. These are real structures, often made of wood, equipped with shelves like in the supermarket.
Obviously, in addition to the possibility of buying apples directly from the producer at a very competitive cost (4 € for 10 kilograms of apples), you can buy juices of natural apple, cranberry juices and others of various kinds, in short, but all without added flavors and dyes, just to be clear. In short, nobody wants to demonize the classic distribution, but buying such products directly from the producer and saving money, has a completely different flavor. How much did I pay for a 25ml bottle of natural peach juice? Just 1 euro. I still have apples at home, 10 kilos are a lot. Shall we make a strudel?
