00:00:05.800 --> 00:00:12.000
The "U' Barunieddu" activity was born in 2020, in the midst of a pandemic.

00:00:12.006 --> 00:00:16.916
Together with my family, my mother, my father and my cousin,

00:00:16.918 --> 00:00:24.018
we decided to open this laboratory to rework,

00:00:24.024 --> 00:00:29.924
revisit the typical recipes of the Sicilian tradition

00:00:29.929 --> 00:00:33.229
and keep them in jars, to allow everyone,

00:00:33.234 --> 00:00:35.934
even to those who live outside Sicily, outside Italy,

00:00:35.939 --> 00:00:41.539
to be able to taste the typical recipes of the Sicilian tradition.

00:00:41.540 --> 00:00:46.040
The one we are famous for is our sfincione cream,

00:00:46.043 --> 00:00:49.343
which distinguishes us as a canning company

00:00:49.348 --> 00:00:54.948
because we are the only manufacturers to make this product.

00:00:54.953 --> 00:00:58.053
The sfincione cream is nothing more than a "conza"

00:00:58.059 --> 00:01:04.059
based on onion, anchovy, tomato paste,

00:01:04.064 --> 00:01:08.464
salt and a hint of sugar.

00:01:11.071 --> 00:01:14.171
In our laboratory we deal with conservation

00:01:14.176 --> 00:01:19.176
and the transformation into preserves

00:01:19.179 --> 00:01:26.076
all the raw material we transform is local, first choice material.

00:01:26.087 --> 00:01:30.087
Today in particular we are showing a small process,

00:01:30.090 --> 00:01:36.090
a little recipe about lemon jam, this is the "primofiore" variety.

00:01:36.093 --> 00:01:39.893
In addition to jams, such as lemon jam,

00:01:39.897 --> 00:01:45.097
we also use the late mandarin of Ciaculli, PGI blood orange,

00:01:45.103 --> 00:01:48.503
We also make a whole series of pickles:

00:01:48.509 --> 00:01:55.109
artichokes, mushrooms and grilled aubergines.

00:01:55.114 --> 00:02:01.114
We care that all our raw materials are local

00:02:01.122 --> 00:02:07.422
even as preserves we are perfectly tied to seasonality.

00:02:11.131 --> 00:02:15.931
The production work phases are almost always the same,

00:02:15.935 --> 00:02:21.135
Once the raw materials have been collected they are washed and discarded

00:02:21.140 --> 00:02:26.340
and subsequently transformed, in this case we proceed

00:02:26.346 --> 00:02:32.346
once the lemons are washed, we cut them and proceed immediately with cooking.

00:02:32.352 --> 00:02:37.152
In particular the lemon, this is a "Femminello" variety,

00:02:37.157 --> 00:02:40.357
we also make the "Verdello" lemon jam,

00:02:40.361 --> 00:02:43.461
in Bagheria we are very famous for our lemons,

00:02:43.462 --> 00:02:49.162
we proceed with a light blanching of the lemon,

00:02:49.169 --> 00:02:54.169
after which it will be left to drain for a couple of hours,

00:02:54.174 --> 00:02:59.024
then it will undergo a second cooking together with the sugar.

00:03:01.179 --> 00:03:07.779
The next step will be to mix the sugar with the lemon

00:03:07.785 --> 00:03:13.185
and then transfer it into our jars,

00:03:13.190 --> 00:03:17.190
First we will seal the product with our capsules

00:03:17.195 --> 00:03:19.195
and after which the product will be pasteurized.

00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:30.499
At the moment our goal is to expand our sales

00:03:30.509 --> 00:03:33.109
and to make our products known,

00:03:33.114 --> 00:03:36.814
not only to a local audience, but also to foreign ones.

00:03:38.519 --> 00:03:46.019
Another future project is to participate in international fairs,

00:03:46.026 --> 00:03:50.426
in fact we are trying to achieve the goals

00:03:50.431 --> 00:03:56.231
between now and the end of the year to be able to expand our business.
