Seppie Ripiene alla Veneziana
Veneto — Venezia e Laguna Veneta
Whole cuttlefish stuffed with their own tentacles, breadcrumbs, Parmigiano, parsley, garlic, and their ink — braised slowly in white wine and tomato until they surrender to tenderness. The ink in both the stuffing and braising liquid colours everything a deep blue-black, creating a visually dramatic dish where every element carries the briny, metallic-sweet character of the sea. A classic of the Venetian bacaro tradition.
