Est 1950. The art & soul of pasta. Bronze die extruded for remarkable texture. Ready in 12 minutes. Al dente in 10. Expertly milled. Organic whole durum wheat flour. Our Artisanal Roots: What began in 1950 holds true today - our family's passion is to craft and share wonderful Italian food. Our Pasta: We select and blend the highest quality Italian organic durum wheat for a beautiful color, wonderful aroma and high protein content to maintain a superior pasta shape, structure and flavor. Our wheat is expertly milled into ground whole-wheat flour, and then carefully kneaded with cold, fresh, mineral-rich mountain spring water to create the texture of traditional pasta but with all the benefits of the whole grain. The extrusion through bronze dies gives our pasta that rough feel, creating a naturally porous surface that absorbs and captures every type of sauce. We dry our pasta slowly at low temperature to reproduce the traditional way of making pasta. This method respects the ingredients, preserving the pasta's color, texture and aroma. Artisans of Al Dente: The perfect al dente bite is achieved when pasta cooks to a tender exterior balanced by a firm bite with a fleck of white at its core - the pasta's soul. Our recipe is simple, and our approach, traditional: patience, wheat and water. This ensures an authentic al dente experience every time. Our Love of Farfalle: Commonly known as bowties, Farfalle are actually named for their butterfly shape. This prized pasta cooks up deliciously al dente because of their pinched middles. Serve them hot or cold with lighter sauces and dressing, featuring vegetables like zucchini and artichokes. We loke Farfalle in a light cream sauce with salmon and asparagus.
