Enjoy these local dishes

Sardinia and Alghero are both famous for their delicious local dishes.  One of the must try being – malloreddus.  This is typical pasta made from semolina wheat, eggs, water and salt and seasoned with a great tomato sauce infused with sausages and fresh pecorino. We would also recommend that your taste buds enjoy the sumptuous culurgiones.  This is another type of pasta but it is stuffed with potato, mint and pecorino, delicately seasoned with basil.

Among the main courses, we must mention Su Porcheddu, the typical suckling pig, loved by locals and tourists alike. Sardinians love meat!! Make sure you try the lamb stews seasoned with a delicious sauce made from chopped dried tomatoes, garlic and olive oil. The Cordula with peas is a fantastic dish: is none other than the lamb’s intestine in olive oil with garlic and parsley and then cooked in a pot with water and peas.

Sardinian Desserts: pardulas, small cakes stuffed with fresh ricotta, or bianchittus,  meringues, cakes very light derived from simple ingredients such as almonds, sugar and egg white. 

For digestive purposes!! Immediately after the meal, you should order a Mirto, the Sardinian drink of choice made from Myrtle berries.
