Eel

In the Comacchio area, eel is the queen of the table. In the Ferrara area, eel continues to be one of the most important culinary treasures, and dishes such as grilled eel and eel soup are typical, especially during the Christmas period in the lagoon area. These delicacies are celebrated in festivals and fairs, attracting visitors from all over Italy. The fishing and preparation of this fish have a long tradition in the local culture. Eel, with its fatty and flavourful meat, pairs perfectly with Fortana. The wine enhances the flavour of this fish without overpowering it, creating a harmonious and pleasant pairing.
