From legend to table. History of the Apulian tarallo

The legend is set in Puglia in 1400.

The mother is alone with her children. He has nothing to feed them. Look in the pantry . It only has flour , a little extra virgin olive oil , salt and a bit of white wine . The only thing he can do is combine the ingredients and try to knead . A mass emerges which the woman divides into strips and then makes into small circles, perhaps to reproduce a hug to the little ones, a sign of her affection and attention. Finally, he lights the wood and puts everything in the oven.

This is how the Apulian taralli were born, even if we know it very well: the legends are mixed with a pinch of history and a good dose of suggestions that have only a hint of reality.

But we at Apulian Store like legends a lot, and what is liked becomes beautiful. And tasty , just like taralli, which today have become one of the symbols of the simplicity and authenticity with which the Apulians love to eat.
