About Masseria Mirogallo

Based in
Province of Matera, Basilicata, Italy
Known for
vegetables in oil and tomato sauces

Masseria Mirogallo is a small farm in the province of Matera, inside the Parco delle Chiese Rupestri. It grows its own vegetables, working the land with traditional and often manual methods, and puts them up as vegetables in oil, dried vegetables and tomato sauces, following old recipes.

The vegetables in oil are ready for an antipasto board or a quick pasta. Dried vegetables go into salads and sandwiches, and a tomato sauce needs only hot pasta and a little cheese.
