In breve

The dish in short

  • Brovada: white turnips with purple shoulders fermented in red grape marc and grated into strips. Muset: a Friulian cotechino of pork, rind and snout.
  • The muset simmers whole, not pricked, in its own pot of water over low heat for 2 hours.
  • The brovada cooks slowly, covered, for about 2 hours on a soffritto of onion, olive oil and pounded lardo, with bay leaves.
  • Loosen it with ladles of the muset's water as needed: at the end it is neither brothy nor creamy.
  • Served as a bed of brovada with two thick slices of muset on each plate.
