Serving suggestion

Since this dish is quite hearty, we suggest you serve it with some light vegetable side-dishes or a big, colourful salad!

Pinot grigio, Sauvignon blanc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah.

Family tip

If you think you might like a stronger taste, use Auricchio Piccante instead of Auricchio Dolce!

Dish history

The recipe we present here is that of a delicious winter dish: potato 'gnocchi' (dumplings) with cabbage and Provolone cheese. The inspiration for this combination came from the most famous 'Pizzoccheri alla valtellinese', in which potatoes and cabbage meet thick buckwheat pasta and a whole load of mountain cheeses (e.g. Bitto, Casera or Fontina). We thought of turning the recipe a bit more 'mediterranean' by keeping the duo potatoes-cabbage and replacing the northern cheeses with a southern one like Provolone. The result is a delicate, refined dish everyone will love!
