San Ferdinando di Puglia, just north of Bari and
near the famed coast of the Gargano peninsula,
has long been celebrated for its fresh fruit and
vegetable crops.
Grandfather Ferdinando Todisco was the first
in his family to begin to conserve the local
artichokes, using just water, salt, and vinegar.
Since then two more generations of the family
have broadened their expertise to make a
variety of locally-sourced vegetables and
olives in oil and vinegar, always with a nod
to seasonal, hand processing and careful selection of raw materials from Puglia.
Ingredients: Turnip tops, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Onions, Broccoli, Garlic, Chili Peppers, Salt, Lactic Acid, Citric Acid.
