For a few years now, the farmers of Salento in Apulia have been
harvesting their vegetables for the Muscella brothers, founders of the
preserve-making company, Sapori del Salento (Tastes of Salento).
The lampascioni, shallot-like bulbs of the wild hyacinth plant, which
grow profusely all over Apulia, are one of the most prized delicacies
of this region. They can taste overbearingly bitter, but the lampascioni
by Sapori del Salento are an exception: crunchy, savoury, smooth and
rounded, with an exceptionally fine aftertaste of almonds.
Hand picked as soon as fully ripe, they are immediately peeled and
cleaned, chargrilled, and put in jars with olive oil. Delicious as a starter,
they are also an ideal accompaniment, served warm, to meat and
steamed fish.
