Ravioli alla caprese
These delicious ravioli are filled with a tempting mix of fresh mozzarella, sun ripened tomatoes, and fragrant basil, encapsulating the essence of a classic Caprese salad within delicate pasta parcels. Each bite offers a burst of Mediterranean flavors: the perfect balance between the creamy richness of the mozzarella, the bright acidity of the tomatoes and the aromatic freshness of the basil. Whether served in a light tomato sauce or simply drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled with Parmesan cheese, our Ravioli alla Caprese promise to transport you to the south of Italy with every mouthful.
Orecchiette with fresh pesto
These small, ear-shaped pasta shells are the pride of Puglian cuisine, capturing the essence of the region’s culinary tradition. Paired with vibrant, homemade pesto made from basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and extra virgin olive oil, each mouthful is an explosion of taste. The soft orecchiette perfectly cradle the rich pesto, creating a dish that is both comforting and indulging. Whether enjoyed as a simple yet satisfying meal on its own or complemented with sun-ripened cherry tomatoes and a sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese, our Orecchiette Pugliesi with fresh pesto are a journey through the rustic charm of Puglian cuisine.
