The red mark indicates the location of Signora's family home - on the outskirts of the hill town of Teggiano - which is indicated in light green- in the south-eastern corner of this map
Here you can see some great images of the historic part of town- Up on this hilltop there are thirteen churches and the bishop's domain for the region. The town counted heavily on help from heaven during its many trying times- and it is still going strong as the center of the entire Vallo di Diano
In this brief video you can see how the nonnas of Teggiano make their unique ravioli - squared, not round, and often with goat's milk ricotta.
My grandmother always made them like this and had a special antique fork with sharp tines to close the ravioli securely. They were always fresh and delicious!
