Make a typical loaf of bread by yourself!
Bread in Matera is an ancient art, a true gastronomic excellence, and a traditional symbol of the city. The culture of bread is linked to the wisdom of local farmers in producing, selecting, storing and preserving certain varieties of durum wheat, intact, over time.
True Lucanian Pane di Matera IGP (it stands for Protected Geographical Indications) obtained with 100% Lucanian milled semolina grain known as “Senatore Cappelli”. The shape of the bread recalls a small mountain relief, characteristic of the Murgia Materana landscape, while the ingredients are a synthesis of the basic elements peculiar to the Matera area: water and grains.
This experience is an educational workshop on bread processing and includes the explanation of the products used, the visit to the bakery and its laboratory, a presentation and description of the four generations company, still active in the territory.
The activity takes place inside a traditional bakery, where you will be able to appreciate the art of Matera bread-making, its secrets, recipes and uses.
