Tiella pugliese by Frank FarielloEven though my paternal grandfather was from Grumo Appula, a small town outside Bari in the southeastern Italian region of Puglia, I don't remember eating much pugliese food growing up.

Grilled Salmon with Basil Cream Sauce by John SpottiswoodGrilled salmon goes very well with lemon and basil.

They love pesto on pizza and pasta, and this has a similar, though milder, flavor. |
