Nestled in the enchanting hills of Furore, the Albergo Dipinto & Hostaria Baccofurore has been an emblem of hospitality and culinary tradition since 1930. This charming establishment offers not just a place to stay but an authentic taste of the Amalfi Coast's timeless flavors, such as the signature dish: Spaghetti with "Pesce Fujuto."
The story of "Pesce Fujuto" (which translates to "escaped fish") reflects the ingenuity of families in times past. Unable to afford fish, they gave the dish its evocative name, enriching it with their imagination. Today, this recipe stands as a testament to the power of simplicity. Combining freshly harvested tomatoes, aromatic basil, and premium olive oil, the spaghetti is elevated to a gastronomic masterpiece, even though the fish remains a playful figment of history.
What makes this dish special? The secret lies in the ingredients and technique. Sun-ripened cherry tomatoes from the Amalfi Coast, simmered to perfection, create a robust and tangy sauce. A sprinkle of freshly picked basil infuses an irresistible aroma, while the final drizzle of extra virgin olive oil binds everything together. This humble yet flavorful creation showcases the essence of Mediterranean cuisine—simple, fresh, and unforgettable.
