Hunter's Feast
• Friggione: A traditional sauce/spread originating from Emilia-Romagna. It features a savoury blend of slow-cooked onions, tomatoes, and lard or olive oil, resulting in a rich and flavourful condiment. It's often served as a spread on crusty bread or tigelle.
• Wild Boar Stew: A rustic dish featuring succulent wild boar, sweet carrots, and aromatic onions. The boar is seared and simmered with tomatoes for a touch of acidity, while juniper berries add a unique, piney flavour. This hearty stew captures the essence of countryside cooking with its rich and balanced taste.
• Polenta: A Northern Italian dish made from coarsely ground cornmeal. It is cooked slowly in water or broth until it becomes creamy and smooth. Often served as a base for meats and stews, polenta can be enjoyed soft and creamy or allowed to set and then grilled or fried. Its mild, comforting flavour makes it a versatile and beloved staple in Italian cuisine
• Red wine pairing: as much local red wine as you’d like to enjoy
Villa degli Olmi, originally built as a hunting lodge by my husband’s grandfather, continues to uphold its rich heritage.
Wild boar has been a staple in our local cuisine since the days of the Roman Empire and throughout the Middle Ages. Join us to experience this centuries-old culinary tradition.
You'll savour the rich, authentic flavours that have been cherished by generations of hunters, enjoying a taste of history with every bite.
