Local Soups

Soups are a common dish on the island of Gozo. Nowadays, these options are enjoyed as starters. However, in the past the local soups were the daily meal.

Minestra

Also known as vegetable soup, it was almost a daily occurrence. As most peasants were farmers, the Gozitan housewife was an expert in preparing the minestra from their own produce.
