Carla Di Fiore

The importance of memories and the triumph of the pork

 
Carla Di Fiore, the manager of the holidays farm “Di Fiore” located in Morcone, lead us through a trip into tradition thanks to her memories.
She starts with the “triumph of the pork” then she talks about grape varieties produced on the our territory in farmer time, finally she talks about the cakes of festivities.
During the interview she tells us about the preparation of the brawn and the difference with the “noglia”. Two salamis: the first considered noble and the second a poor one.
She illustrates the production of “sanguinaccio”, the rituals of the bread and the division of labour in farming.
She explains what are the “Maitinate”: narrative songs that became an expression of culture and symbolic actions.
The key ingredient of Carla’s cooking is: the taste of tradition. Combined with always new ideas for always original country dishes.
