The "cazzateddhra" is a type of bread that has roots far back in time, when home ovens did not yet exist and the only oven available was the village oven, where dear grandmothers would go to bake their own dough. This is where the "cazzateddhra" was born: while a woman was waiting her turn to bake, a piece of dough accidentally fell into the oven, giving birth to this wonderful bread.
Together we will prepare the dough, bake the bread and enjoy it together, accompanied by a glass of local wine. All this will take place in my sweet and beloved kitchen.

- Katia, Gregory, Angelo and the whole family were extremely welcoming and very passionate about their food. Even Nonna Rossi helped in the kitchen. Everything that we ate was delicious and super fresh. They grow all the vegetables and even make their own olive oil and vinegar. Their friend Mauro taught us how to make fresh mayonnaise (aioli) and it was delicious. This is an experience that we will cherish forever. They are wonderful people. We 100% recommend this experience.
- Had the most wonderful evening with Katia and her family, from start to finish it was warm, inviting and comforting. The food prepared was incredible, almost all the ingredients were sourced from their own home gardens in the region and we could really taste the love that went into every bite. We spoke French with Gregorio & Katia while Angelo, their son has excellent English. We even got to enjoy some hyper local digestif with Katia’s in laws who came by. If you have the chance to book this experience, don’t hesitate! I only wish I could’ve been eaten more without the threat of passing out.
- Lovely experience w Katia and her family! I felt like a guest in her home. She met me with her sweet son Angelo in Lecce’s historic center, took me to some local markets there to sample some local Leccese treats, and then she drove us to her amazing town (15ish min away?) where we first stopped by the sea, then to her local fishmonger, where we picked up some mussels. We then went to her amazing house and got to know each other over aperitivos and Prosecco. Between her broken English, my broken Italian, her son’s very good English, and google translate, we had a very fun conversation 😄 Her husband shucked the mussels, which we ate raw (the most delicious I have ever had!) and then she showed me how to make pasta. I learned so much, including some very helpful tips that only someone who has been making pasta for years can share with you. She made the sauce from tomatoes, onion, and basil, from a garden steps away from her kitchen and enjoyed the delicious meal together. She then drove me back to the train station. I just wish I had more time with Katia and her family! It was a great experience.
- We had the pleasure of dining in the home of Katia B. In Lecce, with her husband Gregario and son Angelo. We met Katia and Angelo in town, visited some markets, and sampled local food and wine. They then took us to their lovely home near the sea, where we ate out on the front porch in the stillness of the evening, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We got a warm greeting from Gregario when we arrived. Katia prepared a delicious dinner of antipasto, which included homemade bread and meatballs, orecchiette with tomato and cheese sauce, and tiramisu, also all homemade by Katia. My husband said it was the best he ever tasted. Our conversation flowed easily, thanks to Angelo, our interpretator for the evening. So if you would like to enjoy a very different and relaxing experience while in Lecce, we suggest you visit with Cesarina Katia B. and her family. Ciao and Buon Appetito!
- I spent a wonderful evening with Katia and her family. We made homemade pasta together and had an amazing meal with a lot of lovely vegetables from their own garden afterwards. Big thank you and I’d be happy to come back again!
