Corsican Gastronomy

On holiday in Corsica at the Bagheera naturist resort, discover Corsican gastronomy rich in flavours and authentic local products.

Hazelnuts, chestnuts, deli meats, goat cheese, spring water, island wine and honey are some of the main products used in Corsican gastronomy. It is based on a wide range of authentic products, coming directly from a preserved environment. Wanting to constantly improve their products, Corsicans favour quality rather than quantity. Some Corsican products can seem expensive compared to those in supermarkets on the mainland, but their taste and enjoyment leave a lasting memory much more important than their purchase price.

 

 

Considered to be one of the best in France, Corsican "charcuterie" cold deli meats are a must! It is very likely that the food eaten by the mostly free-range pigs contributes to its particular taste. The coppa (dried pork loin), salsiccia, prizuttu, lonzu (dried and peppered fillet) and figatelli are the stars of Corsican gastronomy.

 

During your stay in Corsica at the Bagheera naturist holiday resort, you can also discover different locally produced cheeses, the second most popular Corsican speciality. They all have to be tasted because of their diversity of texture and flavour as well as strength. They can be eaten on their own, toasted on vegetables or the spiciest can be accompanied by jam or fresh figs.

 

As for other delicacies, they are very varied. Made with local products, honey, brocciu, jam, chestnuts, Corsican desserts are a whole lot better than regular cream puffs and other desserts. You can taste: fiadone, apple doughnuts with citron, canistrelli, panzarotti, fugazzi, doughnuts with chestnut flour and cucciole during your naturist holidays in Corsica!

 

The wines are the gastronomic pride of the island. Known all over the world, Corsican wines don't play second fiddle to the great wines of the continent. From Cap Corse to the far south, the wine route is long and delicious and can lead to having a nap under a chestnut tree!

 

Other regional specialities to discover during your holidays in Corsica: aziminu (Corsican bouillabaisse), pulenda (polenta with chestnut flour), zucchini with goat's cheese, Bonifacio aubergines, whiting with herbs and olives, etc. A wide selection of authentic products rich in flavour that will excite your taste buds!
