Edit, 17.12.2020: Using preprocessing now it recognizes all, but the "O" in CREO. See the stages in ocr8.py. Then ocr9.py demonstrates (but not automated yet) finding the lines of text by the coordinates returned from pytesseract.image_to_boxes(), approcimate size of the letters and inter-symbol distance, then extrapolating one step ahead and searching for a single character (--psm 8).
It happened that Tesseract had actually recognized the "O" in CREO, but it read it as ♀, probably confused by the little "k" below etc.
Since it is a rare and "strange"/unexpected symbol, it could be corrected - replaced automatically (see the function Correct()).
There is a technical detail: Tesseract returns the ANSI/ASCII symbol 12, (0x0C) while the code in my editor was in Unicode/UTF-8 - 9792. So I coded it inside as chr(12).
The latest version: ocr9.py
You mentioned that PRATOLA and PELIGNA have to be given sepearately - just split by " ":
splitted = text.split(" ")

These are from getting "boxes".
Initial message:
I guess that for the area where "cucine" is, an adaptive threshold may segment it better or maybe applying some edge detection first.
Kitchens seems very small, what about trying to enlarge that area/distance.
For the CREO, I guess it's confused with the big and small size of adjacent captions.
For the "O" in creo, you may apply dilate in order to close the gap of the "O".
Edit: I played a bit, but without Tesseract and it needs more work. My goal was to make the letters more contrasting, may need some of these processings to be applied selectively only on the Cucine, maybe applying the recognition in two passes. When getting those partial words "Cu", apply adaptive threshold etc. (below) and OCR on a top rectangle around "CU..."
Binary Threshold:
Adaptive Threshold, Median blur (to clean noise) and invert:
Dilate connects small gaps, but it also destroys detail.
