The "ghiotta" (in the Agghiotta dialect) is an ancient and typical dish of Sicilian and maritime culinary tradition.

The term "ghiotta" is linked to how fishing boats distributed unsellable fish among their crew.

That is, the fish damaged during fishing, excellent for consumption but unsellable, was redistributed to the fishermen who took it home.

The term likely refers to the fact that the fish became "ghiotto" (appetizing) thanks to spoonfuls of sauce, which kept it soft and flavorful.

Tuna ghiotta is an ancient and typical dish of Marzamemi (Pachino), a picturesque village located at the easternmost tip of Sicily, home to our company.
