CASEIFICIO PIOGGIA
Read moreA family cheese dairy, run by two brothers who "fell into it when they were little": Giovanni will tell you that at the age of three, he was already mixing milk in the vats! In the laboratory at the back of the shop, the master cheesemakers make the cheeses sold in the shop: burrata, mozzarella and ricotta fresh in the morning, but also caciocavallo (taste the one with mucca rossa milk, very fragrant), pecorino and cacioricotta, a typical Apulian cheese that is grated on tomato orecchiette.
MACELLERIA ROMANELLI
Read moreOne of Martina Franca's (many!) butcher's shops where you can buy capocollo, the local specialty, and other salted meats produced and matured by the house. Our preference goes to culatello nostrano, a salted and dried raw ham, truly melting in the mouth! If you wish to bring back some cold cuts from your trip, ask for vacuum-packing. On the butcher's side, you will find the traditional bombette. Also some canned vegetables in oil, dry pasta and various condiments.
