Cheese making up in the mountains of Abruzzo at various stages of maturation - straight from the vat to several months old when they’re stored in a wooden chest. Such incredible skill involved in the handling. Truly a handmade cheese. . . . #cheese #sheepcheese #pecorino #abruzzo #handmade #artisanPasta 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 #squarefoodfoundation Follow on Instagram
