September in Italy is a sensory bridge—the moment when summer’s warmth gently fades into the rich, cozy promise of autumn.
Italian markets come alive with fresh figs, their honeyed sweetness perfectly matched with creamy ricotta or savory prosciutto. Wild porcini mushrooms, prized for their deep, earthy flavor, start to appear, turning simple risottos and pasta dishes into unforgettable seasonal treats. And then there’s must (mosto)—the freshly pressed grape juice that marks the beginning of the harvest season, rich in fragrance and tradition.
While fresh figs and must aren’t currently available in the Magnifico Food catalog, you can still bring the magic of September into your kitchen with artisan delights like Funghi Porcini Sott'olio by Salpa—porcini mushrooms preserved in oil, perfect for risottos, pasta, or antipasti platters.
For a sweet twist, try layering fig preserves on goat cheese toast, or toss those porcini in a creamy sauce to elevate any pasta dish. These ingredients capture the heart of the season—warm, earthy, and full of flavor.
