In the heart of Bastilicata lies Senise, a small town with a big bite.
The Senise pepper, which can be eaten fresh or is often turned into a powder, is dark red in color and has put Senise on the map. It is cultivated in the small southern villages in the Basilicata region. It is used to flavor cured meats, cheeses, and soups.
