When it comes to the great classics of cooking, tradition and parochialism are the masters. Take the bacon and egg, trouble to mention alternative ingredients, the purists would shout at the scandal. And yet, those who love cooking share Picasso's thinking "Learn the rules like a professional, so you can break them like an artist”And pursues its goal even at the table.
Here then are the many variations, many pasta shapes, many reinterpretations, regional, creative, gourmet. Like this one, of the chef Domingo Schingaro, that from the starred restaurant Due Camini gives us a version that is a perfect contamination of Apulian ingredients with the contemporary elegance of Borgo Egnazia.

For the egg custard:
Put the egg yolks in a small bowl and whisk the egg until the egg temperature is 60 °; we will thus obtain a pasteurized cream.
For the creaming
We obtain a bunch tied with kitchen string with herbs from the Mediterranean (sage, thyme, rosemary).
In a non-stick pan put a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and let the lightly crushed garlic clove season, add the bunch of herbs, let it cook for a few minutes, remove the herbs and garlic and add the capocollo cut into thin slices after in very fine julienne, we roast the capocollo in a pan very quickly and turn off the heat.
Flat finish

Serve and finish with the caciocavallo mousse.
