Pasta d'Alba ECO Full-grain fusilli pasta from spelled

Organic fusilli pasta made from wholemeal spelt flour has a distinctive spiral shape that wonderfully catches sauces and condiments, offering a delicious experience with every bite. This shape is excellent for pasta salads and oven-baked dishes, as the spirals gather and retain the sauce, creating a satisfying texture.

Spelt has a higher protein content than common wheat. Spelt proteins contain all the essential amino acids necessary for a balanced diet, making it a good option for vegans and vegetarians. Some people who are intolerant to gluten may tolerate spelt better than wheat, as it contains a more primitive form of gluten that is easier to digest.

The essence of Pasta d'Alba lies in the superior quality of the ingredients used. The freshly milled flour with the help of a stone mill comes from certified organic farming. In the Mainardi family workshop, tagliatelle and tagliolini are made by hand, exactly as tradition dictates. Short pasta is drawn through bronze dies to obtain that specific surface roughness of artisan products, ideal for gathering and retaining the sauce. The pasta is then dried slowly and at low temperatures, for at least twenty hours. Thus, it retains its nutrients, organoleptic properties and a perfect taste.

The pasta is boiled for about 6-8 minutes in boiling salted water and then the ready-made pasta sauces are added to taste. A quantity of 250g is sufficient for 2 people.
