Casonsei alla Bergamasca con Burro e Salvia
Lombardia — Bergamo e Val Seriana
Bergamo's half-moon filled pasta — a hybrid of sweet and savoury unique to Lombardia: the filling combines braised beef, sausage, Parmigiano, breadcrumbs soaked in broth, raisins, amaretti biscuits, and nutmeg. The result is a filling that tastes simultaneously of meat and dessert — the defining characteristic of medieval Lombard cooking where sweet-savoury integration was high art. Served in the classic Lombard way: simply drizzled with sage-scented brown butter and Parmigiano.
