My range of Italian style Antipasti are based on recipes gleaned from Italian friends and neighbours during the years I spent living in Puglia, the "heel" of Italy.  I have given the recipes a Yorkshire Twist too, and use local ingredients from fellow Yorkshire producers wherever possible.   

Of course, there is no substitute for Italian Olive Oil, and after several years of searching - I have selected a gentle Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Umbria to form the basis of my oil infusions, whilst for the more strongly flavoured Infus-iastic, I use a robust, cold pressed extra virgin olive oil from Puglia. 

Feta Cheese is a familiar taste, but here in Yorkshire we prefer Mrs Bell's "Fine Fettle" Cheese.  Preserved in oil like its Mediterranean cousin, it is also tasty when a little fire, in the form of chilli flakes, is introduced.  Similarly, Goats Cheese takes on a new, more subtle flavour after steeping in olive oil flavoured with lemon zest and thyme.
