Though extra virgin olive oil is omnipresent in the local gastronomy, the cereal grains also have an important place in traditional food. Bread is produced from this cereal and it is idolized and viewed as miraculous in Puglia, in its various shapes and gradings that can reach up to 15 kilograms. The Frisa, in its many different recipes and \u201cterminologies\u201d (fresedde <\/i><\/em>in Bari, fresella <\/i><\/em>in the Foggia area and frisedda <\/i><\/em>in Salento), is therefore produced in a land in which bakery products have very different values. This small sandwich cut in half before being toasted was once produced using only spelt flour. Today the most appreciated flours are from wholegrain, although it is not hard to find more contemporary versions with the addition of spices such as turmeric, chilli or various seeds. The talent of the Salento people has been to transform the\u00a0poor person\u2019s food into a \u201cmust-have\u201d fresh dish for appetizers. \u00a0In addition to the classic tomato, oil and salt, some restaurants have produced genuine menus based on the\u00a0Frise.<\/i><\/em><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” gap=”” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/3″ el_class=”z-index-up”][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1545314682944{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2930″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-lg” css=”.vc_custom_1561903671880{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”] <\/p>\n\t\t\t A classic of Apulian gastronomy.

Although the classic recipes of the Apulian cuisine mostly include inland products, seafoods are a staple in the recipes of the great seaside cities. Taranto, for example, is the queen of mussel cultivation, in particular\u00a0the black mussels. The \u201cMar Piccolo\u201d in Taranto is entirely dedicated to the cultivation and improvement of this mussel, which is the main element in the famous tiella soup. Mussel soup <\/b><\/strong>has various names such as “fafueche”, “puppetegne” and “scallatedde” among others, but they all resemble each other in both the ingredients and the preparation. \u00a0The mussels are opened in a pan set over the stove, and only oil, garlic, chilli and parsley are added. The sauce forms a broth in which homemade bread is dipped.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” gap=”” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column width=”1\/3″ el_class=”z-index-up”][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1545314682944{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2932″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-lg” css=”.vc_custom_1561903869936{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”] <\/p>\n\t\t\t There are several variations which depend on the city of the recipe’s origin. \u00a0Although Taranto claims its fatherhood, the one from Bari can be defined as the “mother” of all recipes as it is made with, and here is the substantial difference\u2026zucchini\u2026along with the usual potatoes. \u00a0The first difficulty in executing this recipe lies in having to traditionally open the mussels by hand using a special knife and making an incision so that the mussel remains fully intact, in one half shell. It is therefore possible, and certainly fitting, to retain the liquid that comes out, preserving the delicious aroma of the sea typical of this mussel. One then proceeds in layers, alternating vegetables with mussels and uncooked rice, seasoning it all with a sprinkling of pecorino, parsley and onion. The second big difficulty lies in the measurement of the water (mixed with the mussel juices) which is added to the tiella<\/i><\/em>\u00a0and which is then used to cook the ingredients, the rice first and foremost. The rice at the end must be cooked to perfection and the tiella must be neither too dry nor too brothy.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″][\/vc_column][vc_column parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”2932″ width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1561903854315{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”vc_hidden-xs vc_hidden-sm”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” gap=”” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle” css=”.vc_custom_1545317448561{margin-top: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”2933″ width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1561903902894{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”vc_hidden-xs vc_hidden-sm”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1545314682944{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2933″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-lg” css=”.vc_custom_1561903911844{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”] <\/p>\n\t\t\t The icon and queen of Apulian pasta is the orecchietta<\/i><\/b><\/em><\/strong>, which requires experience, skill and practice to prepare. There are now many cooking classes which are offered to tourists, teaching them how to create this type of pasta. Yet despite all their fame, they are only made from water, flour and durum wheat semolina which are combined to form a dough. This dough is then shaped into small cylinders from which these small “conchigliette” or orecchiette are then made by the use of a knife and a skillful pair of hands. They can be large like the Ostuni staccjiodd<\/i><\/em>, or small, like those from Bari. If the piece of dough is left open, after having been “dragged” out (strascinato<\/i><\/em>\u00a0in Italian) with the knife on the chopping board, you will be left with the typical Fasano strascinato<\/i><\/em>\u00a0and Brindisi. Although there are many ways to prepare the orecchiette, the most famous include turnip greens, a vegetable of the broccoli family but more similar to the Neapolitan “friariello”, cultivated in Puglia only during the coldest months.<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” gap=”” parallax_image=”2927″ overlay_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.6)” text_color=”#ffffff” css=”.vc_custom_1561903546995{padding-top: 220px !important;padding-bottom: 140px !important;}”][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” gap=”” equal_height=”yes” content_placement=”middle”][vc_column parallax=”content-moving” parallax_image=”2929″ width=”2\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1561903613780{background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_class=”vc_hidden-xs vc_hidden-sm”][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_empty_space height=”120px” height2=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1545314682944{padding-right: 40px !important;padding-left: 40px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”2929″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” el_class=”vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-lg” css=”.vc_custom_1561903604433{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1561903647356{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-right: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 60px !important;padding-left: 60px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}” el_class=”offset-left-lg”][…] Continue reading<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":6013,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2891"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2891"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2891\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4281,"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2891\/revisions\/4281"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6013"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dagilupi.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2891"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}His majesty, the panzerotto.<\/h4><\/div><\/div>
