Aubergine - or eggplant as it’s called in the US - doesn’t have a strong flavour of its own but tends to enrich any dish in which it’s included especially when baked with tomatoes and cheese.

Pasta skillz and tips from the wonderful @rachelaliceroddy who came over to join us from Rome. Makes it all look so incredibly easy. That’s a chitarra in the last shot which is used in the Abruzzo to cut pasta which comes out looking like thick spaghetti. 80% of Rome’s restaurants are run by Abruzzesi according to Rachel and many of the recipes regarded as Roman in fact come from the region. Fascinating stuff. #pasta #lasagna #makingpasta #cookinglessons #chitarra #fromthemountainstothesea #squarefoodfoundation #rachelroddy #atozofpastaAll about the amphoras (or should that be amphorae) @cirelliwines today right down to the winemaker Francesco’s tatts. Really lovely expressive wines - they farm biodynamically on a mixed farm which also produces figs and rear black pigs which go to make some really top notch charcuterie #wine #abruzzo #trebbiano #cerasuolodabruzzo #montepulciano #winery #winemaker #amphora #tattooMaybe the world’s most extraordinary butcher - @ristoromucciante up in the gran sasso mountain range of the Abruzzo. You queue for your meat then cook it over open charcoal barbecues. The highlight is these arrosticini, tasty little kebabs of lamb shoulder which come from the sheep that graze up in the mountains. The sausages are incredibly good too. Hugely popular with bikers as you can see. #arrosticini #lamb #abruzzo #barbecue #fromthemountainstothesea #squarefoodfoundationAmazing day foraging in the Abruzzo with @forager_in_italy. Picked plants for salads, plants to fork through pasta and plants we just cooked like greens. So much free food on your doorstep if you know where to look. . . . #betweenthemountainsandthesea #abruzxo #squarefoodfoundation #foraging #wildgreens #wildplants #pasta #wildfood Follow on Instagram
