Casa Vincenti

 What makes le Batiaje of Casa Vincenti? A secret ingredient or that scent of mystery that surrounds them? Mirella Borda Bossana, when it was time for her parents to retire, she really didn't think about starting to knead and bake biscuits. And we're not talking about ordinary biscuits... but perhaps the most famous Batiaje in history, those that were made in a Royal House and whose recipe was stolen by a maid from Villar Bagnolo, a certain Miss Bosio. In short... Mirella, together with her husband Mauro, luckily became fascinated and involved, and decided to continue the production of Casa Vincenti's Batiaje. And as she got to know her new work, Mirella realized the luck and beauty of being able to carry on a tradition so full of values, including historical ones. And then a lot of passion, which can be seen shining in her eyes, did the rest... A passion that Francesco, her son, evidently felt so intense that he decided to get involved in the family business. A tradition that has lasted for six generations that of the Vincenti di Barge. In fact, the serving girl was Mirella's great-great-grandmother and, dating back to 1850 when the first Vincenti batiaje were made, today it has been more than 170 years since these delicious biscuits have been baked in Barge. But what makes them so good? According to the recipe you need a generous amount of corn flour, at least 40%, and the butter must be genuine as well as, of course, the secret natural flavourings. And the ingredients of that time have remained the same today. Furthermore, the dough is made today with a mixer but all the processing is still manual and the batiaje are prepared by hand one by one. Today these sweetnesses they are known not only by the Bargesi but in many other places, including abroad. In fact, the family participates in fairs and festivals as already happened in the past. Back then they were sold with the "cabassa" (gerla) and the "galliota" (wheelbarrow) and it was a very hard and tiring job. But the strength of this family has been able to demonstrate itself whenever there was a need, such as when Miss Bosio and her fourteen-year-old daughter Giuseppina suddenly disappeared at a very young age, on the same day of her mother's departure, in order not to let go missing the butter that had just arrived, he kneaded his first batiaje. The term batiaje, for those unfamiliar with it, indicates in the Piedmontese language the typical rounded biscuit made with maize flour, and originates from the local tradition in use already more than a century ago in bringing a child to baptism and being always a big party, they happily said "Anduma a batiajè" that is "Let's go baptize" and to celebrate these particular biscuits were made. The company boasts the Piedmont Artisan Excellence brand. In addition to the classic Batiaje, today versions with chocolate drops, with chopped hazelnuts and, depending on the season, with apples, strawberries, blueberries and also with Pignoletto flour, ancient Piedmontese corn. Another niche product are the Amaretti biscuits: a unique fragrance, handmade with high quality ingredients, with a tasty flavor and a soft heart. Always according to the tradition of Casa Vincenti at Christmas the Low Panettone Torinese, a real goodness leavened in a natural way and with icing garnished with almonds, proposed in addition in the classic version also with the chocolate. So if you want something truly unique on the tables of Christmas, don't miss it..
