Cardo Gobbo di Nizza Monferrato is one of Piedmont’s most distinctive vegetable varieties.
Here, it is preserved in extra virgin olive oil, using a process designed to let the main ingredient take center stage.
The cardoon retains its distinctive delicate flavor and typical slightly bitter finish that makes it so unique.
Sight
It comes in evenly sized pieces, preserved in extra virgin olive oil.
Nose
The aroma is intense and vegetal, with the characteristic notes of cardoon.
Taste
It is sweet and delicate, with a slightly bitter note. The texture remains both tender and crunchy.
Pairing tips
Enjoy it at room temperature, simply with bread, or pair it with alpine cheeses such as Castelmagno.
If you want to try something a little less usual, serve it with pears and anchovies: the sweetness of the pear and the savory character of the anchovy complement the flavor of the cardoon.
It’s your guy if…
…You’re looking for a less common Piedmontese specialty and enjoy discovering the flavors and varieties of the territory.
