Grilled artichokes in extra virgin olive oil
The artichokes grilled in extra virgin olive oil are tasty and delicious vegetables that, a few hours from the harvest, are processed with artisanal techniques and transformed into preserves
A classic protagonist of the Apulian table is the artichoke, which is traditionally harvested in March - April and which never fails on local tables. With this product we have thought of respecting its flavor and integrity, limiting ourselves to collecting it, peeling it and putting it into wedges for you in a very simple and delicate brine. A product that will win you over with its simplicity.
Small, tender and appetizing, these artichokes are an
autochthon variety named “brindisino”. The cultivation starts
in the beginning of October and the picking in April. The fresh
artichokes end their working process within eight hours of
being picked. This kind of artichoke is very tender. We remove
the leaves and we turn it by hand with a small knife. Then it is
scalded and is put in extra-fine-olive-oil. No other ingredients
or spices are added in order to valorize the unique taste of this
product.
They can be used to enrich a hors-d’oeuvre, to dress cold
rice together with our Mediterranean greens and are really
delicious on pizza. They have a natural taste and are also
excellent to enrich a warm dish. They are very crackling: this
feature makes of them one of our most sought-after product!
The Cherry tomatoes are cultivated in April and are picked

wood frames.

Deliciously savory and rustic, the wild "paparine" are spontaneous herbs typical of Puglia. Coming from the poppy plant, they abound in the Apulian fields in spring and are very popular with everyone, young and old. Their collection, as well as their preparation and cooking, require a little patience. That's why we have decided to make them available to everyone and to shorten the time
Giardiniera is a typically Piedmontese appetizer but its extraordinary goodness has prompted many Italians to make it their own. To such an extent that today it has crossed the Piedmontese regional borders and we find it practically everywhere. That of the gardener is a simple and delicious recipe: you can prepare it in oil, sweet and sour or raw. The important thing is to have fresh, seasonal, colorful and crunchy vegetables on hand.

We cultivate the zucchini in open field in the month of April
and we pick them up by hand in June and July. Then they are

The tradition relating to the habit of eating legumes is very rooted in Puglia and Salento, where it is customary to soak them the evening before their consumption and then cook them in a traditional terracotta pignata. The Land of Puglia shortens the time for you and offers you the same flavors of home ready to be opened, heated and tasted.
Macaroni, or "Minchiareddhi" are the first of excellence in the Salento diet, seasoned with a good tomato sauce, and for those who want to taste in an even more typical way with a pinch of "ricotta schianta".
