notes from the road/sicily

 

Photographer Paola Ambrosi DeMagistris writes in from her travels in Sicily.

This tasty "dentice" was dropped by the local fishermen as soon as we sat at our table at the "Ristorante la Combusa" in Castellamare del Golfo...the chef covered it in coarse sea salt from Trapani and cooked it for 40 minutes...thanks to the salt the fish was amazingly moist and kept all its freshness and flavors...nothing needed to be added...I just sqeezed a few drops of lemon and enjoyed it with an "insalata siciliana" of tomatoes, red onions, green olives and oregano...YUM!

 

 

This is a great little restaurant right on the harbor in this tiny fishing village.
