The story

About the dish

The central flavors in Fusilli al Forno con Verdure alla Salentina come from bell peppers, mozzarella, zucchini, and capers. Gratinating it adds a browned, savory surface over the softer filling beneath. Taste it for aromatic warmth and a measured spark from bell peppers, soft, fresh dairy richness from mozzarella, and a clear, distinctive flavor of its own from zucchini.

It carries a Puglian cue toward a table formed by durum wheat, olive oil, seasonal vegetables, pastoral dairy and two long coastlines. In the dish, bell peppers contribute aromatic warmth and a measured spark, giving that cultural setting a sensory anchor.
