Melpignano praline

Praline, Melpignano (LE)

Producer of sauces and preserves

HISTORY

 

Since its inception, Pralina has taken up the challenge of transforming
the herbs and vegetables of Salento, according to ancient rules but still alive with tradition.

 

Pralina starts its business in 1991 thanks to the initiative
of a group of young professionals driven by passions
and from common experiences.

 

And it is right from resources of the earth and the desire to guard them, make them known and share them that the idea of ​​creating a processing company of local raw materials comes to life.

 

A company capable of reproducing, within a much broader production process than the home cooking, the same alchemy that is created in it between the quality of the raw material and the goodness of the finished "dish".

 

Thus was born PR.ALI.NA.

Ethics & Sustainability

 

The genuineness and careful selection of raw materials, combined with the constant innovation of the production processes, make Pralina a unique reality in the Italian agri-food sector.

Praline Chooses Renewable Energy

 

Thanks to the construction of a photovoltaic system, with low environmental impact, because it is located on the
roof of the company, Pralina will be able, starting from 2017, to make almost all of its consumption effective
energy.

 

It is estimated, in fact, that the plant, once fully operational, will be able to cover up to 80-90% of the company's electricity needs.

 

This will make it possible to feed production with "clean energy", to the benefit of the environment.

Praline Chooses the Glass

 

Glass is a recyclable material and as such less polluting than many others.

 

It can be recycled, reused, washable and hygienic.

 

This is why 99% of our products are packaged in glass in full respect of the environment.

 

We believe that packaging is a fundamental element for the environmental sustainability of the entire product.

Pralina, which has always been attentive to the environmental sustainability of its products

 

Thanks to the Le Biodiverse project, it has reserved a specific and excellent line for some indigenous varieties of the area.

 

The raw materials are Apulian, of the highest quality, grown according to the good practices of a new and sustainable agriculture and processed without additives and preservatives.

 

The earth is not an inert support, but a living organism that must be respected as such.

Praline promotes healthy and careful development

 

To the peculiarities of the territory capable of enhancing its taste and qualities, rediscovering its nutritional and organoleptic properties.

The Memorandum of Understanding

 

With the support of the Foodchain startup we have traced the production of our “Le Biodiverse” soups and creams using Blockchain technology.

 

By scanning a QrCode printed on the label of our single-portion products with a smartphone, it is possible to know: where the raw materials we use were grown, who and how they grew them, how the soup and velouté were prepared, with which ingredients such as recipes, when it has been labeled, packaged and shipped.

MISSION

 

Il Salento it is an ancient land, of great traditions still alive, one generous land, rich in historical memories and natural wonders.

 

The mild climate and the mildness of the air on the coast and in the sunny hinterland favor the growth of an infinite number of spontaneous herbs and medicinal plants, a great variety of fruits and vegetables.

 

And it is here, in this land and among these people, which brought our experience to life: we decided to transform these herbs, these fruits and these vegetables into exquisite natural products according to the unwritten rules of a recognized one culinary tradition.

 

For each recipe that is prepared it is the knowledge of raw materials, mastery, the taste, given by our experience, which help us to enclose in each jar the flavor of this land.

 

Every day, in the kitchen, it is the skill of our cooks that measures the doses and times.
