“The shortcrust tarts of Salento tradition, filled with grape compote.”
Pitteddhe are small shortcrust tarts from the Salento pastry tradition: a crumbly shell holding grape compote, sweet just the right amount.
Pitteddhe with grapes are shortcrust tarts from the Salento pastry tradition, partially closed on themselves and filled with grape compote. They are made by Biscottificio Preite, the artisan bakery that keeps the sweets of Apulian tradition alive.
The base is a shortcrust shell — flour, butter and sugar — that holds the compote, sweet without being cloying. In Salento tradition these little cakes also come with other fillings, such as figs or quince: this version is the grape one.
Tradition
Salento pitteddhe, also known as pittegge, are handmade sweets, often prepared for weddings and religious festivities and shared with friends and family as a sign of affection. You'll find them in local markets and artisan pastry shops across Salento, and for many visitors they become a tasty souvenir to bring home.

Deliziose. Il ripieno è molto particolare. Si gustano volentieri per la loro diversità.
Non solo lo consiglio, ma lo raccomando caldamente! Ho usufruito del sito per un Pacco-da-giù per i miei suoceri lombardi e avevo inserito questo articolo: è stato largamente gradito e lodato!
Ottime! Mia moglie (PUGLIESE DOCG le ha gradito tantissimo e le ha fatto fuori in un baleno). Anche qua, era meglio avere una data dis cadenza un pò più lunga.
