Agricola Senga

Mantuan mostarda made with fruit grown on the farm

Agricola Senga is a family farm in Marcaria, in the countryside of Mantua, where mostarda is a centuries-old specialty: fruit candied in syrup and sharpened with mustard.

The farm makes mostarde, jams and honey following old recipes, and grows about 80% of the fruit and vegetables it needs.

After the long cooking of the fruit, the mostarda is spooned into jars by hand and covered with its syrup, which keeps it lively and spicy. It is the classic partner for aged cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano, and for cured and boiled meats.
