Squid spaghetti made from whole wheat flour is a truly iconic Italian pasta. Not only its consumers, but also its creators are passionate.

Fusilli come from Campania and belong to the short, straight cut family of pasta. In the past, Fusilli were made by hand according to a method that was passed down from one generation to the next. You had to rapidly twist a strand of spaghetti around a knitting needle with a skilled hand. The ability required to perform this procedure is reminiscent of that of spinners and as a matter of fact, the term "fusillo" comes from "fuso" (spindle) which was the tool used by spinners.

Penne Rigate is part of the short, diagonally cut, ribbed pasta family and is one of the most well-known types of pasta, as well as the most versatile in the kitchen. In Italian, "Penne" refers to the quill historically used for writing, cut diagonally to give a really thin tip. The shape obtained from the dough tube can be smooth or ribbed, of variable length, and with a diagonal cut typical of quills.

It is delicious with all kinds of sauces, both the traditional (meat-tomato-based) and the more innovative and original (vegetable-cheese) sauce.

Fusilli originate from central and northern Italy and owe their name to the spindle around which the wool was wound.
Perfect with rich meat or ricotta-based sauces.

Potato Gnocchi is a typical dish in the tradition of Italian cooking that in different regions may differ in the shape and size of the dough.

Their various shapes are designed to make them the perfect choice for preparing attractive dishes every day; from recipes with meat sauce or pesto alla genovese, to more original and imaginative ones based on velvety cheese sauces or simpler ones with melted butter, sage and grated parmesan.
