Procedure

“This is an alternative “alpine” way to cook on the grill. In mountain huts they use fine stone slates similar to roof tiles, called “piode”, arranged over 2 stones in order to create a sloped surface.
Light the fire under the “pioda”, heating it slowly to avoid breaking it. When the slate is very hot, carefully place the Galletto opened (marinaded with oil, salt and herbs) on it. The heat is very low and cooking needs quite some time, even more than 1 hour, but it’s well worth the wait.”

As an accompaniment, we suggest serving this dish with raw, fresh vegetables.

The “Galletto Briaco”

Leave the cockerel to hang for a night in the wine with the ingredients described above.

The next day, put the Galletto in a well-oiled casserole and fry for a few minutes to colored.

Cook over medium heat for 40/50 minutes, adding wine to prevent it from burning.

After cooking mix the gravy with the flour. You will get an excellent sauce accompaniment.

Galletto Vallespluga “alla boscaiola”

Put the Galletto in a casserole with hot oil, which has been flavoured with the rosemary, and brown for a few minutes, taking care to turn them several times.
Then, cook over a moderate heat for approximately 30 minutes. At this point, add the sliced porcini mushrooms and the garlic clove.

Continue to cook for 15-20 minutes, mixing the Galletto with the other ingredients and adding salt and pepper.

Sprinkle with the dry, white wine. Towards the end of cooking, sprinkle with chopped parsley and mix carefully
