Istrian prosciutto, olive oil and the tavern menu

The Buršić family's Istrian prosciutto has Protected Designation of Origin status. It is dry-salted with sea salt and natural herbs and spices, then dried without smoking in the bora wind. The family also makes pancetta, ombolo, a dry-cured Istrian pork loin, sausages and špaleta, a dry-cured pork shoulder traditionally served at Easter.

The estate also produces extra virgin olive oil from Buža, Carbonaca, Leccino and Bianchera olives, available for tasting and purchase.

The tavern menu includes cured-meat platters, polenta with olive oil and prosciutto, and homemade pasta with prosciutto goulash. Other dishes include maneštra, sausages with sauerkraut, gnocchi, fuži and makaruni with žgvacet, an Istrian meat stew, and roast meat. Alongside products made by the Buršić family, the shop stocks cheeses, wines, liqueurs, truffles and olives from other Istrian producers.
