What you can expect

Ready for an immersive journey to discover the world's best bread and the unique flavours of Puglia?

The experience begins at a historic dairy in the heart of Altamura. You will witness a hands-on demonstration of master cheesemakers intent on preparing burrate, scamorze, mozzarella and all the milk goodness of a tradition passed down through generations.

At the end of the workshop there will be a small tasting of dairy products and cheeses. In short, a real Cheese Experience!

From the dairy we will move to our 1300s bakery crossing the old city centre and exploring its most hidden beauties. Claustres, piazzas and the Puglia way of life will frame a walk among the artistic beauties of the capital of the Murgia.

Arriving at our bakery, you'll have the chance to watch a hands-on demonstration of making the world's most famous bread dough, discovering the magic of sourdough and the goodness of local flours. All inside our medieval venue.

Kneading, breaking, folding and baking: don't miss a step!

Afterwards, roll up your sleeves to actively participate in the Focaccia Pugliese preparation workshop: “cazza” the tomatoes, give it a round of oil, and off to the oven

NOW SAVOR THE FOCACCIA AND BREAD MADE BY YOU

Outside the oven, Grandma Graziella and Grandma Teresa are waiting for you, ready to teach you the noble art of making orecchiette (typical fresh handmade pasta) .Water, flour and good will: you can't leave Apulia without knowing how to make orecchiette

When this experience is over, we will indulge in a tasting of the baked goods, local wines, cold cuts and cheeses to discover the flavours of the Murgia and Puglia.
