A great way to grasp the spirit of Salento is ‘hands on’, in precisely the literal sense of the expression. In this workshop you will learn how to make typical Salento pasta – orecchiette or ‘sagne’ – with high quality, local, low-gluten flours. Once the pasta is made, you can use it as the base for local dishes following typical, traditional seasonal recipes. Alternatively, or as well the pasta, you can choose to prepare a local dessert. At the end of the day we’ll taste the dishes prepared together. (Not available during the middle week of August). Booking necessary, and according to availability.

At this experience you will find:

• The use of compostable or re-usable crockery;
• Self-produced and certified organic oil;
• Local organic food;
• The sorting of materials for recycling;
• Organic waste separated for composting or use in the chicken coop;
• Filtered and purified tap water for drinking;
• Solar-powered electricity.
