Fish in Carpione

@tuduu

Fish in carpione is a traditional Lombard dish, which involves subjecting the fish to a double cooking process: first, it is fried in olive oil and then left to marinate in a sour sauce made of wine vinegar, sliced onion, sage, and pepper. This preparation method gives the fish a unique flavor and a delicate texture.
