PEARA’

Basic recipes | December 14, 2015 | By

This marvelous sauce and its poor ingredients recall in my mind a rural image of a time in which you cooked with what you had in the house, trying to add proteins for the winter. This sauce is typical from Veneto (dating back to the VI century!) and my grandmother used to love it and always made it with the Bollito misto at Christmas!

The base of this sauce is made of old bread, bone marrow and bouillon, with the addition of a lot of pepper (pearà means ‘peppered’). My grandmother version has also got a bit of grated parmesan, to be added at the end.

Pearà is simply delicious with its round and creamy taste. This is given by the bone marrow: when not cooked it has got this beautiful pink colour and its consistency is like butter.

Use the bouillon made with the different cuts of meat for the Bollito misto.
