Spigadolce

Spigadolce is a channel created out of my passion for sharing my knowledge of cuisine, particularly that of the Puglia region. I focus intently on the quality of ingredients and their authenticity. I was fortunate enough to grow up in a family with strong agricultural traditions. From my father, I learned how to identify wild herbs, and my mother taught me how to cook them. My grandfather ran a tavern in the 1920s and was affectionately nicknamed Spigadolce; I dedicate this channel to him.

The seasonality of produce and its preservation are of paramount importance to avoid resorting to greenhouse-grown products. Often, we take great care of our external appearance but pay less attention to what we consume daily to nourish ourselves. The Mediterranean diet is a cornerstone of healthy eating worldwide, and I am a strong advocate of it.
