Food Pairing
Tocai Friulano-based wines are versatile food pairing wines. If you were in Friuli and ordered a “tajut” (a small glass) of Tocai it would be accompanied by a few slices of locally cured Prosciutto and some crusty bread. You can also carry your Tocai to the dinner table and pair it lovingly with salads, fish, or a heartier dish like the meat-based stew, goulash. But there is one dish that is the epitome of all Tocai pairings and that is Frico Caldo, a pancake of potatoes, onions, and cheese.
