What groups in with these pasta producers are the selection of high quality raw materials, the maintenance of craft processes and the care for the details. These can be less profitable choices, that implies extra work, but they’re what let us taste such high level products. In this day our wishes and congratulations go out to these pasta makers, true ambassador of Italian taste and culture.

Bread, if cooked following few and good practices of bread-making, is one of the most satisfying food in all its simplicity. It is fundamental for leavening to take the necessary time for being completed (and not creating a sensation of bloating), in this case it is suggested the starter, which makes the bread more easy to digest due to the activation od enzymatic processes that favorite a pre-digestion. The attention should be focused on the choice of the raw materials too, therefore flour first. Our suggestion is using not to refined flours, obtained through stone milling , a process that, differently for the industrial milling made using mechanic steel rolls, maintains the temperature constant preserving the vitamins and mineral salts content. The ancient wheat flours as Tumminia, Maiorca e Perciasacchi made by our trusted Sicilian producers AdamoBio and Azienda Agricola La Fastuchera guarantee the stone milling and they’re ideal for a rustic bread with a great aromatic structure.
