For this reason in the summer period there are numerous festivals and fairs in many villages overlooking our Lario.<\/p>\n<h4>How does the &#8220;Agone&#8221; become a typical Misultin of Lake Como?<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5071 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-247x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"247\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-247x300.jpg 247w, https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-768x934.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-450x547.jpg 450w, https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-658x800.jpg 658w, https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024-600x730.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lakecomogolfdestination.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Misultin_2_1024x1024.jpg 842w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 247px) 100vw, 247px\" \/>Today this fish from Lake Como is a true gastronomic specialty also because to become a true Misultin, the shad must go through a strict procedure: the entrails are removed, rubbed with salt and turned there every 12 hours for two days. At the end of this procedure they are rinsed, skewered with string and exposed to drying in the open air. After a few days the Misultin are placed with bay leaves in a container (originally made of wood, today made of tin) with wooden lids that are stacked. In this way the pressure of the stacked containers and the wood allows transpiration and the escape of excess oil.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<span class=\"tags-links\"><a
