Milano Nights: Polpettone di Tonno

This Milano Night celebrates the practical creativity of the Italian home kitchen, where simple pantry ingredients are transformed into dishes made to be prepared ahead and shared.

Polpettone di tonno does not belong to one single city or region. It is part of the broader Italian tradition of polpettoni, with a particularly interesting connection to Liguria and its pesce finto, an old preparation made with tuna and potatoes and traditionally shaped like a fish.

Live presentation

Chef Olivieri slices and presents the polpettone with a fresh salad of fennel and orange, dressed with extra-virgin olive oil and Aceto Balsamico di Modena. The bright, crisp salad provides a refreshing contrast to the soft texture and savory flavor of the tuna.

Wine pairing

The pairing is Claris Pinot Grigio. Fresh and easy-drinking, it complements the tuna without overpowering it and brings out the fennel and orange notes.
