Stella Casabono's Bono Vinoecaffe Bistrot in Sulmona is a welcoming dining destination that offers a variety of traditional Abruzzo dishes. One of their signature dishes is lamb scottadito, accompanied by baked potatoes and turnip greens sautéed with Sulmona red garlic.
Scottadito lamb is an Italian specialty that stands out for its tender and succulent meat. The word "scottadito" derives from the fact that the lamb chops are cooked over high heat, so as to slightly burn the external surface, while the inside remains tender and juicy. This cooking method gives the dish a unique flavor and crunchy texture.
Coppo potatoes are a classic side dish that goes perfectly with lamb. The potatoes are cut into thick slices and cooked in the oven together with aromatic spices, such as rosemary and garlic, and a drizzle of olive oil. This cooking method gives the potatoes a crunchy texture on the outside and a creamy softness on the inside.
Turnip greens sautéed with Sulmona red garlic are a tasty and nutritious side dish. The turnip greens are sautéed in a pan with Sulmona red garlic, a type of local garlic that has an intense and aromatic flavour. This preparation gives the turnip greens a slightly bitter taste and an addition of spiciness from the garlic, creating a balanced and tasty dish.
Bono Vinoecaffe Bistrot is renowned for its selection of wines, which can perfectly accompany this delicious meal. Guests can choose from a variety of local and national wines to complement the dining experience.
