Corsican charcuterie<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Auf Korsika gibt es keinen Stand oder kein Restaurant, das Ihnen nicht anbietet, die ber\u00fchmten korsischen Wurstwaren zu probieren<\/b>. In der Tat werden Sie w\u00e4hrend Ihrer Spazierg\u00e4nge sicherlich die Anwesenheit vieler Schweine bemerkt haben, die in den Naturgebieten der Insel frei grasen. Sie ern\u00e4hren sich haupts\u00e4chlich von Kastanien, die dem weltweit gesch\u00e4tzten Fleisch einen besonderen Geschmack verleihen.<\/p>\r\n

Im Allgemeinen haben korsische Wurstwaren einen charakteristischen Rauchgeschmack. Besonders beliebt sind Coppa (Skulptur aus Schweinelende), Lonzu (mageres Schweinefleisch) und Figatelli (Mischung aus Fett, magerem Schweinefleisch und Leber).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Goat and sheep cheeses<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

While the most emblematic Corsican cheese remains brocciu, fresh goat’s or sheep’s cheese<\/strong>, which can be garnished with honey or olive oil and herbs from the maquis, it there are so many others! These can be enjoyed as an aperitif, at the end of the meal or as a base for savory and sweet preparations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

L\u2019aziminu<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The island of beauty is also renowned for its fish, and in particular for aziminu, which can be compared to Marseille bouillabaisse<\/strong>. The soup is then prepared with rock fish typical of the Mediterranean Sea (scorpion fish, red mullet, grayling, mullet, sea bream, etc.) which will simmer for a long time in a tasty broth. It is sometimes garnished with shellfish and seafood. Cooked fish is served separately from the broth in which garlic toast is dipped.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Wild boar stew or stufatu di cignal<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Corsica is a vast hunting territory and the locals are used to eating game. This is the case of wild boar which, prepared as a stew<\/strong> is mixed with garlic, onion, carrots and then simmered in red wine, enhanced with a small glass of water -of life. A dish with character!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

La pulenda<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is a chestnut flour pancake<\/strong> cooked in a cauldron and which serves as an accompaniment to charcuterie, cheese or simply two fried eggs. It is best eaten hot and is very present on the tables during the end-of-year celebrations.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Corsican veal (with olives)<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The Corsican veal is a quality meat<\/strong> which will, in this recipe, be associated with another flagship of Corsican gastronomy, and more generally, Mediterranean: the green olive. Everything simmers for a long time in a broth made up of red wine and herbs (thyme, bay leaf, etc.). To taste it, it is advisable to serve it with pasta, polenta or potatoes.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Corsican honey<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

It is a must-see on the island of beauty<\/a>: the richness of the flora (clementin trees, chestnut trees or flowers of the maquis) makes it possible to obtain organic honeys with varied flavors and of high quality<\/strong>. Very present on the markets, it is customary to bring back a few pots to offer to loved ones as a souvenir. To be enjoyed for breakfast or with Corsican cheeses, mild or more pronounced in taste, it’s up to you to choose your honey according to your preferences.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Le fiadone<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

This is the most popular dessert on the island: fiadone is made from brocciu<\/strong>, mixed with sugar, eggs and citrus zest (lemon, orange or clementines). The preparation is then baked in the oven until it is nicely golden on top. It can be served with a citrus fruit jam or a small glass of Corsican digestive.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t

Le canistrelli<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

These are small dry biscuits flavored<\/strong> in several ways: anise, lemon, orange, orange blossom, almond or chestnut for example. They are essential at coffee time and are even available in a savory version for an aperitif.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Corsican wines and spirits<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Viticulture has been very present in Corsica since the 11th century: the climate and the terroir also offer distinctive and exceptional wines<\/b>. There are around thirty varieties on the island of beauty<\/a>, the best known of which are niellucciu, sciaccarellu and vermentinu . Taste the renowned wines of Patrimonio or Sart\u00e8ne, you won’t be disappointed!<\/p>\n

The most common Corsican beer<\/b> on the island is Pietra, made from chestnut. As far as liqueurs are concerned, two particularly stand out: the sweet and creamy chestnut liqueur and the myrtle liqueur, a must in Corsica.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
