The story

About the dish

At the heart of Agnello alla Gardesana are white wine, rosemary, polenta, and butter. Slow cooking gives it time to soften, concentrate, and gather savory depth. It lets white wine bring fruit-toned acidity and aromatic lift; rosemary bring a fragrant herbal lift; polenta bring a mellow grain character that carries the surrounding flavors.

Read through its regional name, it belongs to northern traditions of rice, polenta, butter, cheeses and braised meats that vary markedly from province to province. In the dish, white wine contributes fruit-toned acidity and aromatic lift, giving that cultural setting a sensory anchor.
