Friuli Venezia Giulia is located at the northeastern tip of the Italian Peninsula, bordering Slovenia and Austria. It boasts a diverse landscape, overlooking the Adriatic Sea and surrounded by high mountains. Friuli Venezia Giulia's cuisine has been influenced by Venetian, Slavic, and Central European cultures, and is based on a variety of simple recipes and authentic ingredients, including dairy products, meat, cured meats, and legumes, which are used to create flavorful and delicious dishes. Typical dishes include polenta, legume and vegetable soups, and porcina, a stew made from boiled pork and cured meats served with sauerkraut and mustard. Among Friuli Venezia Giulia's most typical Italian products are San Daniele prosciutto, renowned and exported abroad, Montasio cheese, and smoked Sauris prosciutto. The best cured meats are soppressa, salami, sausages, and musèt con la brovada, a type of cotechino served with turnips soaked in marc. These tasty traditional Friulian dishes are best accompanied by high-quality white and red wines, including Picolit, Tocai, Rebula, Refosco, Malvasia, and Terrano. This region also produces spirits, including renowned grappas, both traditional and flavored. Finally, Friuli's typical dessert is gubana, a pastry shell filled with dried fruit. Strudels and fruit tarts are also excellent. On our marketplace Mangiamo Italiano You can find the best Italian producers of Friuli Venezia Giulia delicacies, only the best of our Made in Italy.
