We start with golden brown polpette di melanzana, aubergine fritters with pecorino and oregano, plus crunchy taralli, salty ring-shaped snacks. Then we make capunti, a pasta prepared with flour and Primitivo wine in a spicy Apulian caponata sauce with tomato and fresh vegetables, to proceed with a classic calzone di cipolla (pie filled with sweet onions, olives and pecorino) and decadent oven-baked stuffed potatoes. The rich side dish (often used as a main in Puglia!) is peperoni ripieni (stuffed, oven-baked bell peppers). And then, two desserts: pastatelle di Conversano (half-moon cookies filled with cherry jam and walnuts) and a wonderful cheese cake with ricotta and citrus fruit. One warning: you’ve got to like cheese since this workshop contains tons of it. 🙂
