Roma, or Rome, is a province and capital town of Lazio, a region of central western Italy, around Rome. The city is rightly renowned for its lamb and kid, beef and offal. The Testaccio area is particularly good for offal (US: organ meats). The slaugherhouses were all in that neighbourhood and most of the four quarters were sold on, but the fifth quarter, the quinto quarto, stayed in Testaccio where delicious ways of serving it were devised. Also excellent in Rome, in season, are the wonderful broad beans (US: fava beans) which appear in risotti and many salads, artichokes and the well know pecorino Romana.
