From Hamptons Lane “This month, Hamptons Lane explores the cuisine and dining experiences in some of the most breathtaking coastal towns in Italy. They are rich in classic Italian culinary traditions, the essence of which is simplicity – using only the best ingredients and preparing them with basic cooking techniques to enhance the natural flavor of the food. Travel to the Amalfi Coast to the quaint seaside town of Cetara, where anchovy reigns supreme, for a rare, umami Colatura. Visit nearby Gragnano in Campania, the birthplace of dried pasta for their famous spaghetti dried by the breeze blowing from the mountains to the Mediterranean sea. A stopover in coastal Naples, home of the pizza, yields the #1 Tipo 00 flour – a staple for your perfect focaccia di Camogli, a stunning fishing village on the Italian Riviera. Hop a boat to the Italian island of Sardinia for a small batch, award-winning olive oil, pressed in mills owned by the Pinna family for generations. Enjoy each of your dishes with curated Italian wines from Lot18 – and $25 to spend on them — each perfectly paired and aerated with the best wine aerating pourer in the world. Buon appetito!”
