Discover the authentic flavors of Salento with a food experience at Tenuta Doxi focused on fresh pasta and local specialties. Guided by an instructor, you’ll explore the region’s culinary traditions and learn about the techniques and ingredients that define this local cuisine.
The first part of the experience is dedicated to making traditional fresh pasta from Salento. During the class, the instructor will demonstrate how to prepare local pasta shapes such as orecchiette, maritati, and sagne ’ncannulate. You’ll follow each step of the process, learn traditional shaping techniques, and try making the pasta yourself.
After the class, sit down for a tasting of typical Salento products. Enjoy bruschetta with ricotta forte, grilled vegetables such as zucchini and eggplant, focaccia barese with cherry tomatoes, rustico leccese, and a selection of local cured meats and cheeses. The experience continues with the pasta prepared during the lesson, served with fresh tomato sauce and, if desired, ricotta forte. End the experience with a dessert, accompanied by wine from Cantine Coppola.
