Tuscan delicacies
already on these pages show our appreciation for the small and charming goodies that are offered to us under glass. If there seemed good at the time of the chillies Mongetto, today we have been bewitched by a product such as vegetable spreads.
Perhaps our views in this area are still without the black olive paste that you buy at the supermarket (often less than despicable, especially coming from Genoa), but a bit 'all over Italy looking with patience, can find real gems.
Years ago, we were struck by a certain jars Divizia Andora, the Riviera di Ponente: clap their hands and now the cream of vegetable Court Sant'Andrea, a company located in Certaldo so that famous for onions (province of Florence, Via Trento 10, tel 0267381974 - commercial offices are in Milan-) .
First, it is very good fits to their line crostini: chicken liver is the classic sauce of toasted Tuscan wild boar is the cream (amazing to try the homemade bread), the pheasant and hare. All fascinating.
As for vegetables, we cite one example, the artichoke, really suitable for radiant and delicious canapés. It is not over: The company also provides for a wide range of pickles theory for every taste: from English Bonito del Norte tuna with eggplant, the sumptuous and gargantuan grilled artichokes (really excellent).
There are also jams and sweet preserves, select paste, extra virgin unfiltered and, although we have not tested, the company also sells its own brand name a small selection of red and white wine, a vin santo, and even a sparkling wine.
But you can very well stop the delicacies under glass, and especially with that delicious cream of wild boar and traditional.
