Xató

The secret is in the sauce

Xató is a cold dish prepared with endive, desalted and shredded cod, salted tuna, anchovies and arbequina olives. This winter salad is accompanied by a sauce that makes all the difference. Check the ingredients: garlic, almonds, hazelnuts, anchovies, hot peppers, sweet fried bread, chilli, oil, vinegar and salt.

Xató and Carnival

In Sitges, Xató goes hand in hand with the Sitges Carnival and it is typical to eat it both on Maundy Thursday and Ash Wednesday. Even in the town’s different clubs, ‘xatonadas’ (Xató-related festivities) are organised on these days.  But don’t worry, you’ll be able to try it whenever you come.
