SPARGELERNTE IN GALIŽANA

ISTRIADUCTION October| Free Entrance Die Spargelernte in Galižana definiert eigentlich nicht den Ort Galižana, sondern die gesamte Umgebung, vom Busch bis zum Wald. Über Spargel selbst und mehr über seine Eigenschaften können Sie hier lesen. Spargel im Frühling ist eines der ersten Dinge, die einem in den Sinn kommen, wenn wir über gastronomische Köstlichkeiten sprechen. Um Spargel zu einer Frittata oder einem anderen Gericht hinzuzufügen, müssen Sie einen kurzen Spaziergang in der Natur machen und einige wilde Spargelpflanzen pflücken. Für die eigentliche Spargelernte empfehlen wir Ihnen, Kleidung zu tragen, die nicht der neuesten Generation entspricht, da das Gelände und die Umgebung, in der sie sich befinden, oft dicht und schwer zu durchqueren sind. Für die Ernte selbst braucht es den Willen und ein bisschen Bewegung durch die Natur, die eine Kombination aus Erholung und Unterhaltung und schließlich gastronomischen Köstlichkeiten bietet. Es gibt verschiedene Theorien und Praktiken, wie man Spargel findet, aber eine der besseren Richtlinien besteht darin, dem Spargel, also dem Spargelstrauch selbst, zu folgen. Wenn Sie nicht gerne Spargel ernten, können Sie jederzeit in eine Taverne gehen, wo es verschiedene Menüs mit Spargel gibt.
