Typical cuisine to be tasted in the restaurant of the Salinola Agriturismo in Ostuni - Ristorante Agriturismo Masseria Ostuni Apulia
Considered a luxury item in the past, meat does not appear often in traditional dishes except in versions adapted from the ingeniousness of housewives forced by the need to mix it with breadcrumbs to make good meatballs, to use the meat of the now exhausted horse from the labors of the fields and the less prized cuts like lamb entrails. A classic are in fact the pieces of horse with the sauce and the Turcinieddhi (rolls made from lamb's entrails). A dish that has become very rare now is the blood sausage made with pig blood mixed with veal brains and cooked in the gut. The meat, also given the climate of Puglia, has never been preserved and therefore scarcely used for the production of cured meats. The proteins were worthily introduced into the diet through the Masseria cheeses, a food that is so indispensable in the past as it is renowned and tasted today. They are authentic masterpieces of the Apulian dairy art, ricotta, giuncata, cacioricotta, strong ricotta, marzotica and pecorino aged in the farms in Puglia that characterize our typical cuisine.

The bread served in the Salinola Agriturismo Restaurant also deserves a special mention. In Apulia, but especially in our Masseria in Ostuni, it is obtained from unrefined wheat flours and presents, therefore, a particularly dark color due to the presence of bran. Some types of bread are the "pane a lavaturo", a type of processing and form that gives the name and the bread with the olives. Among the baked goods a very important place occupies the frisella, a specially dehydrated bread to be kept for a long time at home. Next to the frisella, wheat or barley, other delicious products such as taralli and tarallini should be added, also easily conserved for long periods. The typical homemade pasta boasts among its traditional formats, besides the orecchiette, the maccheroncini with the underwire, the strascinate and the tagliatelle. Even the dough like bread is produced with little refined flour and therefore has a dark color.
