Puglia
An extremely beautiful region with a great culinary tradition based on authentic flavours of raw materials. The land of sun, art, nature and hospitality. Embraced by two seas with breathtaking views; crossed by ravines and vineyards that alternate with large expanses of olive trees, stone churches, medieval castles and cathedrals give it a magical atmosphere that encompasses centuries of history.

Tips from the author
We decided to choose broccoli to pay tribute to one of the most used vegetables in Puglia cuisine. We decided to flavour the salad with anchovies and go to the hinterland to collect chickpeas and tomatoes. Can not forget the burrata di Andria for a soft touch. Simple salad to enhance the flavours of the south without altering them.
