Authentic tabarchina tradition
In the southern islands of Sardinia, the tabarchina culture, rich in contamination between Tunisia, Liguria and Sardinia, is still handed down today. For that reason, in the recipe of Nero di Vittorio you can also find a heritage of Ligurian cuisine, the pesto.
The Tabarchini represent one of the greatest legacies of Italian history. This community of fishermen settled on the islands of San Pietro and Sant’Antioco, which are connected by what is called ‘u canale’.
Over the centuries here, traditional Mediterranean cuisine has been coloured by cross-cultural influences that contribute to a unique gastronomic heritage. The Tabarchina cuisine is a marvellous cosmos of flavours; where Ligurian origins are mixed with Tunisian ones, all the way to Sardinian ones.
