The dried cod from Badalucco, is a dish cooked according to an ancient and precious local recipe. Even if it could be quite strange for an hinterland village, this dish has a great success: low price and easy preparing. The ?Stoccafisso? used to be carried by boat to Porto Maurizio and delivered through the mule tracks to Badalucco, which acted as important exchange centre all over the Argentina Valley. A legend tells about Badalucco inhabitants who managed to resist to Saracens attack for long, thanks to a big dried cod stock. This event is commemorated every year, during the Dried-cod Cooking Festival.Badalucco ; Highway A10 , Arma di Taggia exit ; take state road Aurelia direction Imperia; follow the indication to Taggia.On the third Sunday of September the whole village lives again the Saracens attack through a popular festival called ?Baucogna?.
