Experience our customs and uncover the roots of our culinary arts in the characteristic Apulian structures: the trulli, nestled amidst tranquil nature.
Crafting orecchiette, our traditional pasta, encompasses more than cooking; it’s a ritual involving the earth and wind, unhurried periods in the countryside gathering wild herbs, fruits, tomatoes, melon, and whatever our organic garden bears for the season. This leisurely pace mirrors that of our grandmothers, who prepared the family’s daily meals with love and care.
Back at home, we’ll use a dough board and the wind, along with flour, as the basic components to create our Orecchiette. We will discover the techniques to shape this unique pasta, learn its variations, and unveil numerous other secrets. Next, we’ll engage in preparing the meat sauce, vegetables, cheese, and everything else required for our meal. Finally, we will enjoy the fruits of our efforts, savoring every bite of our self-made dishes.
