Vito Martucci, our Chef , is from Puglia, a country in the southern part of Italy .

A sunny and rough land, surrounded by the sea, Puglia produces the best olive oil of Italy along with a superb wine and a great variety of fish.

From Puglia, Vito gives us the recipe "Orecchiette alla Pugliese con salsiccia ":

"Sausage,  Broccoli,  Orecchiette pasta,  Olive Oil,  Parmesan or Pecorino cheese, grated.

Puncture the sausage, cover with water and put in the oven at 400.  After 20-25 minutes took out and let it cool then cut in lumps.

 Cook the orecchiette in boiling water. Drain.

 Bleach the broccoli in boiling water for 2-3 minutes.  In a pan, put olive oil, garlic, pepper, add broccoli and sausage, let it flavour, add the orecchiette, mix everything together.  Serve with grated parmesan or pecorino cheese.
