Cheesemaker for a Day: The Art of Stretched-Curd Cheese

Step into the heart of our Masseria and discover the magic of transforming milk into some of Puglia’s most beloved cheeses.

Alongside our master cheesemakers, you will witness the creation of fresh mozzarella and burrata. An expert guide will explain the production process, while the cheesemaker demonstrates the fascinating art of stretching and shaping the curd, transforming simple ingredients into traditional dairy specialties.

Then it’s your turn to get hands-on and shape Puglia’s famous “white gold” yourself.

Are you ready for the challenge of becoming a Cheesemaker for a Day? Put your skills to the test and enjoy an authentic experience filled with tradition, craftsmanship, and flavor.

At the end of the workshop, relax in the peaceful Apulian countryside and enjoy a tasting of specialties produced on the farm: fresh dairy products, artisan focaccia, and our prized homemade capocollo, accompanied by a glass of local Apulian wine.
