Our production is distinguished by the use of high-quality ingredients, such as ancient Saragolla durum wheat semolina and ancient Maiorca soft wheat flour, grown in the fertile fields of the Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve, just a few steps from the sea.

Every step, from mixing to baking, is done manually to ensure a final product that preserves all the goodness and authenticity of Pugliese tradition.

The Tradition of Onion Calzone Taralli

Origins and History

Taralli are one of the oldest delicacies of Puglia, with a history dating back centuries. Originally created as a humble food made with simple ingredients available in farmhouses, taralli have evolved over time to become a symbol of Pugliese cuisine. The addition of onion gave rise to onion calzone taralli, a variation that combines the sweet and aromatic flavor of onion with the crunchiness of taralli.

Authentic and Selected Ingredients

The quality of our onion calzone taralli is guaranteed by the careful selection of ingredients. We use only Saragolla durum wheat semolina and Maiorca soft wheat flour, two ancient wheat varieties that give the taralli a unique flavor and crunchy texture. Extra virgin olive oil, white wine, and onion add unmistakable aromas and fragrances, while salt is carefully measured to enhance the flavor without overpowering it.

Artisanal Processing

The production of our onion calzone taralli follows traditional methods passed down from generation to generation. The ingredients are hand-kneaded, and once the dough is ready, the taralli are cut and shaped by hand. After a brief immersion in boiling water, which makes them particularly crunchy, the taralli are baked until golden. This artisanal process ensures a finished product of the highest quality, preserving all the flavor and authenticity of Pugliese tradition.
