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

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!
