The sweet yet sharp flavour of the balsamic roasted grapes and the crisp conference pears create a welcome contrast to the rich gorgonzola. Organic Wholeblend Piadina are crafted with wholemeal durum wheat, giving a slightly nuttier and earthier flavour which works brilliantly with the rest of the fillings. Remember to warm your Piadina slightly in a pan or hot oven beforehand, this helps the olive oil in the Piadina melt slightly ensuring a soft and flexible Piadina, ready to be filled, folded, and enjoyed!
