The territory

The cuisine of Ogliastra: an experience of authentic flavours

A food tradition built on fresh, honest ingredients that come from the land and from the sea.

Set between the sea and the mountains, Ogliastra has a cuisine that brings together the pastoral tradition of the inland villages and the fishing tradition of the coast. The result is a simple, seasonal and recognisable table.

Fresh, local ingredients

Pecorino cheeses, wild aromatic herbs, seasonal vegetables, bread and extra virgin olive oil: every ingredient comes from a short supply chain and contributes to genuine dishes.

Dishes not to miss

Culurgiones

Hand-sealed pasta parcels filled with potato, pecorino and mint, served with fresh tomato and grated cheese. The wheat-ear closing is a gesture handed down from one generation to the next.

Roast meats

Suckling pig, lamb and goat slowly spit-roasted, served with seasonal vegetables and pane carasau, the thin Sardinian flatbread.

Fresh fish

From fish soup to mixed grills: the Ogliastra coast brings the catch of the day to the table.

Cured meats and cheeses

Pork charcuterie and pecorino cheeses tell the pastoral history of this land, with intense and recognisable flavours.
