    Why Heritage Grains

    1. Solina grain (Tagliatelle Solina) — an ancient Abruzzo mountain soft-wheat landrace, cold-hardy and naturally aromatic; delivers delicate nutty/cereal notes and a silky bite. 

    2. Senatore Cappelli (Sedanini, Paccheri rigati) — a historic Italian durum selected in the early 1900s, prized for flavour and firm structure; ours is grown and milled in Abruzzo near Gran Sasso. 

    3. Selected durum wheat (Calamarata, Chitarra, Fusillini) — a curated blend of Italian durum flours developed to highlight each grain’s best traits, noted for amber colour and slightly coarser semolina. 

    ​​

    All are bronze-drawn and slow-dried for superior sauce cling and authentic al dente texture.

    How to cook & pair

    Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil, then salt (≈10 g per 1 L). Add pasta to boiling salted water.

    Cook to "al dente"until 2 minutes before the time on pack and start tasting. Move pasta to a pan with sauce and toss 2 minutes to finish cooking—better sauce absorption, glossy al dente. Serve immediately.

    Reserve some pasta water and toss with sauce off the heat. 

     Pairings:

    • Ragù & slow-cooked sauces (Tagliatelle, Capellini, Chitarrina, Paccheri rigati).

    • Seafood & light tomato (Linguine, Tagliolini, Calamarata).

    • Creamy & vegetable sauces (Paccheri, Sedanini, Chitarra, Fusillini).

    How to choose your pasta shape

    • Long cuts (Capellini, Linguine, Chitarrina): best with seafood, light tomato, oil-based sauces.

    • Ribbon cuts (Tagliatelle, Tagliolini): ideal for ragù, creamy mushroom, truffle.

    • Short shapes (Paccheri, Calamarata, Fusillini, Sedanini): great with chunky vegetables, meat sauces, and baked dishes.

    • Heritage grains (Solina, grano duro Cappelli ): pronounced aroma, firm bite, excellent digestibility.

    Cooking tips for perfect al dente

    Use plenty of salted water (10 g salt per 1 L). Start tasting 1 minute before the suggested time. Save ½ cup of pasta water and finish in the pan with the sauce for glossy emulsification.
