A typical dish from Reggio Emilia of Jewish origins. There was once a particularly large Jewish community in the city, and it is to them that other local specialities are due such as goose ham and buricco, large ravioli filled with meat.

A young red is recommended for this delicious menu. This should have a good structure and nose such as Pinot Nero from the Colli Piacentini or a Friuli Cabernet Sauvignon. The lively local red wines are also perfect, such as Gutturnio and Lambrusco Reggiano. |
