/co-to-gna/
Quince is a unique fruit used for centuries to make Mantuan Quince Mostarda, a culinary delicacy from Lombardy. The fruit, originating in Asia Minor, produces hard, fragrant fruit with intense yellow flesh.
The sweet and spicy condiment is a thick, fragrant cream with a sweet-and-sour flavor, perfect with cheeses, meats, and roasted dishes. This traditional specialty is cherished for its versatility in cooking and its distinctive taste, gaining popularity nationally in recent years.
The artisanal production of Filotto Senga’s Mantuan Quince Mostarda follows ancient recipes and local traditions, symbolizing the excellence of Mantuan gastronomy and preserving the region's cultural heritage.
