About Dalmatinska Pasticada
Andrea's Dalmatian pašticada is a festive beef dish with gnocchi and a rich, sweet-sour sauce. Pancetta, garlic and cloves give the meat its characteristic aromatic flavour.
Red wine, wine vinegar, prunes and sweet Prošek bring fruit, sweetness and acidity to the sauce. Onion and celeriac provide its body, with rosemary, bay and nutmeg adding further aroma.
The plate features slices of tender beef beside gnocchi, both covered with the smooth sauce. Optional chopped parsley adds a fresh finish to this substantial Dalmatian celebratory meal.
