LINGUINE ALLA CIAMMURRA
Linguine alla Ciammurra is a specialty of the restaurant of my cousin, La Rondinella, in Anacapri (the upper part of the island of Capri).
In local dialect, Ciammurra translates to the simple falk residing in Anacapri, the contadini, the farmers who have been growing fruits and vegetables and making wine for centuries.
