The medieval menu \u201cAt the court of Frederick II\u201d<\/h2>\n

The medieval cuisine of Puglia is deeply rooted in the traditions of the Mediterranean Sea<\/em>. Being situated right in the heart of that cultural hub, between trade and invasions, the influence from Middle Eastern and North African cuisine, that ultimately influenced fine dining in all of medieval Europe, arrived here first before spreading north.
\nFrederick II of Hohenstaufen, Holy Roman Emperor, King of Sicily, and the man who built the Castel del Monte<\/a>, grew up in Palermo and learned to appreciate its blend of culinary traditions.
\nFurthermore, you might be surprised to hear about the almost forgotten origins of Italian pasta…<\/p>\n
