Are you looking for a PAT product?

PAT stands for Traditional Agri-Food Product. It is a trademark used exclusively in Italy to distinguish traditional and niche products, with such a reduced diffusion that it does not contribute to the assignment of protected denominations such as PDO and PGI. The aim of the brand is to enhance the local specialties obtained with traditional processing, preservation and maturing methods.

Sicilian Pistachio is a PAT product: it has a bright emerald green color and an intense, reinous, fatty aroma. It is a demanding and tiring cultivation both because the plants bear fruit every two years, and because they grow in rough terrain where it is impossible to use the help of machinery: pistachios are in fact harvested by hand, one by one.

The bottarga or tuna roe is a PAT product: it has a color ranging from light pink to dark pink. The consistency is compact and the color uniform. The egg is taken and is hollow inside; This allows you to enter a saturated solution of water and salt that is renewed cyclically. When the brine comes out clean, the product will be salted and subjected to pressure. At the end of the salting period the product is washed and tied to dry vertically.
