- Via dell’Ulivo, 10 - Embark on a journey to explore genuine traditional flavors, highlighting the connection between cuisine, the region, and local wine traditions. The experience begins at 18:15 at a charming villa with a garden on the outskirts of Lecce, lasting approximately 3 and a half hours, and starts with a typical Lecce beverage. Participants will create their own dough to shape two types of fresh pasta: orecchiette and macaroni wire. After crafting the first pasta type, an aperitif featuring local products at Km.0 and typical wines will be served. During the aperitif, the preparation of sauces for pasta dressing will commence, with all stages of preparation explained. The experience continues with the second pasta type, macaroni wire, crafted using a traditional tool called “Caturu,” which will be gifted to participants. After transforming the flour into unique and delicate shapes, participants will enjoy the pleasure of dining, savoring their culinary creations, and engaging in friendly conversations. The event concludes with dessert while glasses are filled with “Limoncello.”
