Artisan Pastiera from Basilicata

Selected ingredients and an artisan recipe

Artisan Pastiera from Basilicata by Pasticceria Donna Giulia in Senise follows a recipe inspired by Campania's traditional pastiera, made with carefully selected local ingredients. A fragrant shortcrust pastry shell holds a creamy filling of cow's milk and sheep's milk ricotta from small local producers.
