Risoni may look like rice, but they’re 100% pasta 🍝

This unique format is designed to absorb liquids gradually, creating a naturally creamy texture while keeping its structure. Small in size, but highly functional, it adapts perfectly to a variety of preparations.

Their shape is no accident: slow liquid absorption builds a naturally creamy texture while the structure holds, which is why they work so well across such different preparations.

Pasta keeps evolving, bringing together tradition and new culinary trends 🍝

In recent months, the pairing of butter and miso has gained attention among chefs and pasta lovers around the world. A simple yet unexpected combination that blends the creaminess of butter with the rich umami flavour of miso, a fermented ingredient known for its depth and character.

This pairing works especially well with long pasta shapes like spaghetti, allowing the sauce to coat each strand evenly and enhance every bite, while keeping pasta at the heart of the dish.

A perfect example of how pasta can welcome new influences without losing what defines it most: simplicity, quality and versatility.

Before becoming pasta, wheat arrives at the mill where it is sifted, cleaned of impurities, and then ground with precision.
During the grinding process, the grains pass through a series of rollers that gradually break them down, removing the outer layers and reducing them step by step.

The ground grain is then separated into its components using sieves, which divide the bran, middlings, and fine bran.
The final stage is the most delicate: the re-grinding refines the flour until the most valuable result of the entire process is obtained, the semolina and fine semolina.

This is the basis of the high-quality pasta we know and love 🍝

Seasonal colds and flu? Boost your defenses, thanks to pasta!😎

With the arrival of cold weather, it's normal to feel a little more tired or vulnerable. But the good news is that a balanced diet can help keep your immune system strong and active.

Pasta provides long-lasting energy thanks to complex carbohydrates and is the perfect base for dishes rich in seasonal vegetables, lean proteins, and good fats.

According to the EFSA (European Food Safety Authority)🔬, a varied and balanced diet, rich in micronutrients such as zinc, iron, vitamin C, and D, is essential for supporting the immune system.

Do you know where "pasta asciutta" comes from? It was invented as a timballo (timbale) in the late Middle Ages. Cooked pasta, filled, stuffed, and then baked: an elaborate dish, designed to impress at the table.
Spaghetti and sauce as we know them today, arrived much later. 🍝
