The most famous production carried out is “Missoltino” (local fish) The fresh shads are washed and salted; after 24 – 36 hours they are washed again and dried. Then they are packed all together into containers and pressed for about 4 months. After this process the shads can be eaten, grilled or with “polenta”. |

Besides the different species of lake fresh fish (whitefish, shad, perch, bleak, burbot, trout, eel, pike, roach, chub), it is possible to buy other fish specialities, for example, smoked fish, picked fish, “bottarga” of the lake, paté and “ravioli” stuffed with fish. |
