Weekend workshop in Puglia
This weekend workshop is the perfect introduction to our way of life in Puglia with its focus on cooking, eating, learning and sharing. While food and cooking will be at the heart of our three days together, our greater aim is to highlight all that is magical about our home region: the food and wine, the people and language, local traditions, the rugged, golden hued landscape and the sea.
We will spend time in our Altamura cooking studio mastering the art of orecchiette pasta and sugo making, trying our hand at making the regional taralli biscuits, preserving sott’olio vegetables, and baking some traditional sweets. Long table lunches will feature the fruits of our labour.
In addition to our cooking adventures we will also have time to explore nearby towns, shop local markets and enjoy an aperitivo and al fresco dinner at our favourite restaurant. Accommodation is at the lovely Il Nido dei Falchi B&B situated in the Centro Storico just steps from the Cattedrale Santa Maria dell’Assunta. It’s the perfect location for morning strolls and afternoon exploring of our charming, history-rich city.
Our purpose is to provide an opportunity to discover the connection between food, the land and history of Puglia through an immersive, inspiring and delicious learning experience.
