An incredibly wonderful tasting
caloric bomb that is
typical of the
Milanese cuisine.
The word itself comes from the Milanese dialect; there
are variant spellings.
It is a winter dish that is made from cabbage, carrots, onions, celery, and nearly every
edible part of the pig.
It takes all day to cook, and while you eat it you are
thinking, this tastes wonderful! until suddenly
it feels like a rock has formed in your stomach.
At that point it is necessary to drink a digestivo
such as grappa and take a long walk.
