Salty pies are always a great idea, especially if you are preparing apperitisers, a buffet for a party, or a yummy take-away dish! This recipe features Burrata, one of the most beloved Italian dairy products, a fresh cheese made of buffalo and/or cows' milk, similar to mozzarella but far softer and creamier. It's traditionally produced in the Murgia and in other Pugliese areas and is a real taste delight!

Many people believe that you must round off a delicious meal with a piece of cheese. If you agree, we would like to suggest an unusual but delicious pairing: try enjoying your favourite cheese with a slice of Panforte, preferably the soft kind: the sweet and savoury flavours will blend in a surprising liaison - a coming together with a gourmet's touch! Add a little sip of Moscato or Passito.. and the magic is quickly created!

Here comes a dish containing a somewhat alternative ingredient, couscous. Some might think it is a  cereal, but it actually is a traditional Berber product made from semolina, granules of durum wheat. This very versatile ingredient, a staple food in North Africa, can be cooked and served with vegetables or stews, but it also can be used to prepare delightful 'salads' or desserts.

Who said mashed potatoes are boring? This recipe will show you how to create an incredibly tasty, original potato flan! Just add a few fine ingredients like nuts, Provolone cheese, spices.. and the magic is done!

We can assure you that the quality of the ingredients and the creativity of the chef are 100% green, white and red! This is a quite unusual dish, somehow inspired by the Southeast Asian cuisine, where combining of savoury and sweet is commonplace, the use of nuts widespread and the basmati rice is a native staple food.
