Aubergine walnut jam - Borgo al Lago
Aubergine walnut jam - Borgo al Lago
The farm of Nonna Natalina with her jams and delicious sauces: a delicious passion!
If I close my eyes and open the box of my memories, my thoughts go to my childhood and I see the face of my grandmother and her farm, where I spent the long summer months. I see the stone-built farm house, the large room with the stove, where you could not only warm yourself up, but were my granny also dried the flowers, herbs and fruits which she finally prepared wonderful jams and sauces... magical moments!
In the morning we always harvested zucchini, carrots, eggplants, onions, tomatoes, bay leaves, rosemary, sage, pumpkin, etc. in the vegetable garden. All ingredients to make delicious sauces and jams. After preparing the jams and sauces she wrote everything in a notebook, because she wanted me to learn preparing these great recipes - how beautiful! My grandmother did not know that it was just through her love and passion how I learnt cooking. I use the secrets of my Nonna Natalina today on a daily basis and spread them to my children and valued clients and their families.
From the Tuscan vegetable garden
Tradition and love for the kitchen. The garden of my grandmother was always full of vegetables and fruits.
For us it was a pleasure to harvest certain vegetables. My favorite vegetable was the aubergine, which impressed me because of the color, shape and size.
My grandmother wrote in her book a recipe for jam that fits particularly well with beef. That was the aubergine and walnut jam.
The aubergine and walnut jam tastes best to bread, to young and mature cheeses. But it is especially good with meat. Try it with beef. You will love the taste so much that you do not want to eat beef without this jam.

The oil mill is situated on a hill in the middle of Tuscany, surrounded by thermal waters of the area of Chianni. The soil is rich in minerals - this is why our jams, sauces and olive oil are so good and tasty.
