Bollito misto (Italian: [bolˈliːto ˈmisto]; lit. 'mixed boil' or 'mixed boiled meat') is a classic northern Italian stew, most closely resembling the French pot-au-feu, consisting of various tougher cuts of beef and veal, cotechino, and a whole hen or capon that are gently simmered for 2–3 hours in an aromatic vegetable broth.[1][2] Bollito and its many regional variations are eaten throughout northern Italy, and is particularly popular in Emilia-Romagna, Piedmont, and Lombardy. The meat is sliced thinly and served with coarse sea salt, mostarda, salsa verde, horseradish, or chutney. The resulting broth is skimmed, strained, and used as a base for soups and risottos.
