Tomino Gratinato con Speck e Caponata

At Davanti, fresh tomino from Lira Rossa supplies a mild, milky center, while the wrapping of smoked prosciutto adds savory depth and a gentle smoky aroma. Zucchini, eggplant, bell pepper, red onion and tomatoes bring contrasting softness, sweetness and freshness through the light caponata.

The plate connects two vivid Italian food cultures. South Tyrol’s speck tradition joins air-drying from southern Europe with the smoking customs of the north, reflecting a region where Alpine and Mediterranean worlds meet. Caponata carries Sicily’s vegetable-centered tradition and its love of balanced, layered flavors—an edible conversation between mountains and island.
