appetizers

The traditional Easter menu, declined with specialties that vary from region to region, cannot ignore appetizers made with boiled eggs and seasonal vegetables, sometimes with additions of cheeses. The egg has always been a symbol of life and fertility, of rebirth; it finds its place in classics such as cavagnetti and pasqualina cake , evident only when cut. Among the vegetables that fill the greedy rustic and Easter puff pastries we find asparagus , chard, aromatic herbs, artichokes, which mark the beginning of spring. With appetizers of this type, the most suitable wines are generally bubbles and fresh and light whites. Among the recommended wines we find Bolgheri Vermentino , Etna Bianco or a Soave Classico . For appetizers with a good presence of ricotta it is good to focus on whites that are also soft and fragrant such as Arneis or Chardonnay . If the artichoke is predominant, it is always necessary to prefer a white wine but of greater structure and body that can handle the challenge, a Vermentino di Gallura Superiore for example, or alternatively a South Tyrolean Gewürztraminer .
