Like it or not, snails are the quintessence of Sassari province cuisine even though they can be found anywhere else on the island. Tradition suggests that snails are cooked with potatoes, garlic, parsley and tomato sauce or alternatively, the biggest ones with fine bread crumbs, pecorino cheese and tomato sauce.

 

 

A popular and simple fish dish is the grilled eel or the lobster soup with light tomato sauce, the best ones in Castelsardo and Stintino.
