|
Use the search engine up here and choose your province to find the restaurant you are looking for; or else if you already know them, you can use the "Advanced Search", insert the name of the restaurant, and you’ll find all the information you need!!! |
|
The most famous specialty that must be mentioned is the “Pane Carasau” with its long lasting thin sheets of bread, handmade with hard wheat flower, kneaded with yeast , salt and a little water. It was born to satisfy the needs of the shepherds who spent many days away from their home in the sheepfold. Another appreciated and traditional deliciousness of the island is the so called “ su porcheddu” or a little pig cooked in the spit, sometime with some flavors (it depends on what part of the island you are). |
|
You can also taste other characteristic sardinian dishes such as lamb, roasted or stewed kid, and the wild pig prepared with great skill by the shepherds who are used to aromatize those dishes alternately with wild fennel, thymus, bay leaves, or myrtle. Despite the simplicity of the local cooking, Sardinia offers a wide range of food and products from sheep , goat’s milk, vaccine cheese to typical sweets such as “sas seadas”, macaroon, “torrone” (kind of nougat), “sas pardulas”, “sos papassinos”, “formaggelle” e finally the honey which can be made from strawberry-tree , thistle, chestnut, di eucalyptus and asphodels. |

Each area in Sardinia has its own typical dishes:

In the western coast, in Oristano, we have a gastronomy linked to the sea and the pond, for example the “bottarga” (dried mullet’s eggs) served at slide as a starter or grated as a sauce for spaghetti, mullets and roasted eels.
The Cagliaritano area, in the southern coast, excels at sea dishes such as those prepared with tuna or spaghetti with lobster sauce, "la cassola" (fish soup), "la burrida", fishcake, crab, clam, hedgehog and "sas panadas" ( salted cakes filled with meat or eels). |
