Gastronomy
In our kitchen we use excusively regional products predominantly
grown on our azienda. Our gastronomy combines traditional recipes and
ingredients of farmers and herdsmen to prepare dishes of unique
simplicity and genuineness.
Olives, cheeses (pecorino, ricotta and fresh dairy products), meat
products (salsiccia, regional ham, pancetta and coppa) are among our
traditional hors d' oeuvres (antipasti), together with pane carasau,
the typical wafer-thin crisp slices of bred.
As first main courses (primi piatti) we serve among other delicacies
the famous dishes of fresh pasta like ravioli, filled with cheese or
ricotta and mangold; the Sardinian maccarrones de busa or maccarrones
de bocciu (cannot be translated or defined - only tasted!), or pane
carasau, immersed in hot water, with tomato sauce, pecorino and
poached egg.
As second main courses we offer among other specialties porcetto
(sucking pig, roasted on the spit) besides arrosto (roast) or in
umido (pot roast) of agnello (lamb), capretto (kid), vitello (calf)
or cinghiale (wild boar). Pecora (sheep) prepared in various ways:
roast, pot-roast or as pecora in cappotto (house specialty) cooked in
the oven together with potatoes, onions and fresh seasonal
vegetables, served with pane carasau, refined with the juices of the
pan.
All dishes are prepared with pure olive oil extra vergine from our
own production.This is why our dishes are so tasty and healthy.
Our dolci (desserts) deserve special attention. Some of these are
prepared with cheese, first and foremost sevada (puff pastry filled
with cream cheese flavored with a trace of the rind of fresh ripe
lemons) fried and served with honey.
S' aranciada is prepared from extra thin slices of candied orange
peel, honey and toasted chopped almonds.
According to old traditions papassinos, delicate pastry with fruit,
orange and mediterranean flavors, are served on All Saints' Day, and
at Easter sas casadinas (short-crust pastry with cream cheese, egg,
saffron and lemon- and orange peel) apart from the great variety of
dolci di mandorle, so typical of this region.
And, not to forget: our vino cannonau and our digestivi (grappa and
liqueurs), naturally all home made.We take special care to ensure
that our house guests can really taste and enjoy all the typical
delicacies of our kitchen.
