Apulia, the remote region comprising the heel of the Italian boot, enjoys a traditional cuisine that is the very essence of a healthy Mediterranean diet. Our weeklong stay in a privately owned 16C Palazzo offers a relaxed and informal insight into Apulian cooking, with a particular emphasis on the history, cultivation and flavours of the delicious oils from the ancient olive groves of Apulia. A visit to a masseria
(working farm), swimming at the coast, some gentle strolls through olive
groves to give us a real feel for 'la terra', plus the glories of Lecce's
Baroque architecture and the whitewashed port of Gallipoli, form the backdrop
to a series of hands-on cookery classes and delicious meals. |
