The features that make our Lucchese tordello unique

The Lucchese tordello, known in the Lucca area as “tordello” with a “d”, embodies true Tuscan land cuisine. Compared to the more delicate Maremma tortelli typical of Grosseto and Arezzo, the Lucchese tordello is distinguished by its rich egg pasta, generally thicker and more durable, and its classic large, half-moon shape. The filling is a savory mix of beef and pork, prepared traditionally with bread soaked in broth, Parmesan, eggs, and especially pepolino, the typical wild thyme from the Lucchesia, which gives it an unmistakable aroma.

Each step of the preparation is followed with care: the meat is slow-cooked until tender, then minced and blended with the other ingredients. The dish is finished with a rich meat ragù and a sprinkle of Pecorino or Parmesan, delivering the depth of flavor found in the best Tuscan trattorie. This is one of the Lucchese cuisine specialties interpreted daily, always respecting the quality of the local ingredients.
