Tastings & sales. Still delicious, still preservative free, still made with pride, passion and respect for tradition.

Speaking of tradition, March 19th is celebrated throughout Italy as a day of honoring and giving thanks to Saint Joseph the patron saint of workers and artisans. 

The Saint Joseph’s Day celebrations are especially festive in Sicily. Here, Saint Joseph is credited with saving Sicily from starvation in the Middle Ages. It was during a severe drought,when crops were failing and families were starving, people prayed to St. Joseph to help them by sending rain

To mark the occasion, many Sicilians eat fava beans which are in season in mid-March. Then to finish with something sweet it’s ZEPPOLE DI SAN GIUSEPPE! buona cucina, buon appetito!

We look forward to welcoming you to our little patch of the planet.

Have you discovered ‘pecorino pepato’?  It’s a sheep’s cheese peppered with … well, peppers!   Peppercorns to be exact.  It’s the Sicilian equivalent of parmegiano but being made from sheep’s milk is  is sweeter and perhaps just tinge milder in flavour without sacrificing the flavour.  This is what’s left of the wedge Terranzo the Winemaker bought for the Little Cellar Ratat NEW FARM DELI on a trip to the Big Smoke.  shaved when fresh and grated over pasta…. squisito!!
