This Just In – Puglian Chicories at Oliveto Community

This Just In – Puglian Chicories

October 29th, 2009 by Catherine Meng

Starting tonight through the weekend, we’ll be serving Barciole di vitellone e cicora: scaloppine of Magruder Ranch milk- and grass-fed vitellone stuffed with Knoll Farm puglian chicories.

For this dish, Chef Canales will be using chicories that were grown by Rick and Kristie Knoll of Tairwa’ – Knoll Farms in Brentwood. Rick and Kristie grew these chicories from seeds Oliveto co-owner Bob Klein brought back from one of his annual trips to Italy. Bob had stayed with his friends, Armando and Rosalba of Masseria Il Frantoio, Ostuni in Puglia, and they offered him seeds from some of the more favorable chicories they grow.

In turn, Bob made a charming video about Armando and Rosalba that tells the story of their passion for community and a love of good food. It is the basis for their incredible guesthouse and the motivation behind much of what they do. Tonight, we’ll be serving some of those fabulous chicories with a nod to our friends.
