Cuisine

Born along the coastline of South Sardinia with its intense maritime culture, this special recipe gains unique depth by adding the fish's own liver into the sauce. It is an ancient fisherman's dish that can be preserved for days thanks to its vinegar-based marinade. It is considered among the most characteristic niche flavors of Italia's marine cuisine.

Ingredients

  • 1 kg dogfish or smooth-hound shark (cleaned)
  • 100g walnuts (crushed)
  • 100ml white wine vinegar
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • The fish's own liver and olive oil

Preparation

  1. Slice the cleaned fish and boil it in salted water for about 10-12 minutes, then drain and let it cool.
  2. In a pan, lightly sauté and mash the crushed garlic and finely chopped fish liver in olive oil.
  3. Add the crushed walnuts and vinegar to the pan, cooking the sauce for a few minutes until the sharp vinegar smell mellows.
  4. Pour the dense walnut sauce over the boiled fish slices and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours before serving.
