Let’s prepare the Genoese cundigiun, a typical Ligurian salad


condolence

Condiglione is a typical Ligurian salad prepared with various ingredients: tomatoes, onions, peppers but also hard-boiled eggs, anchovies and much more.

Condiglione, cundigiun in Ligurian dialect, is a sort of salad prepared with many of the ingredients found in summer gardens. It was born as a peasant dish and as such it is difficult to identify a single recipe: the ingredients in fact vary from area to area and from family to family. After all, we are still talking about a salad.

Looking at the preparation being more similar to the original Genoese recipe , onions, tomatoes, peppers and rigorously Taggiasca olives cannot be missing, just like the oil. You can then add anchovies, green beans, capers, tuna and boiled eggs to make it an even more substantial dish.
