pesce San Pietro
Legend tells of how Saint Peter took the fish from the water with his hands leaving the imprint of his fingers on its skin. He was worried about the payment of a tax but found exactly the right amount of money in the fish’s mouth to pay the debt. This is how the fish got its name and is supposed to explain the presence of two black spots on either side of the body.
