Homemade bread is something that, as other forms of art, is a channel for creativity, expressivity and enriches the knowledges. Moreover it gives us the certainty of eating an healthy product, which is fundamental thing when we talk about everyday food, differently from what normally happens in the most part of the bread, where the amount of yeast is too high, the flour used is too refined and sometimes chemical additives are present too. The first step for an high quality bread is the selection of the raw materials, flour first privileging the raw ones. We’ve invested our time and resources in the promotion of the ancient wheats, endowed with unique organoleptic and taste properties, as we’ve observed after many years of experiments with home made pizza and bread, and the result have been incredibly good. Using Tumminia, Russulidda Durum Wheat Semolina Sicilian biologic stone ground - Fastuchera Farm or Minorca ( Sicilian ancient durum wheat varieties), not only earning in aromatic richness and taste, but our body too will thank us, from the moment that lab analysis have revealed that flours like these bring many different benefits that go from the cardiovascular system ( thanks to lignin) to the ease to digest, moreover discouraging the rise of alimentary intolerances.

Azienda Agricola Biologica Adamo is a company that, due to the magnificent productivity of the land where it is placed, commits to a well rounded production with a fil rouge: the authentic genuineness and naturalness of the products. At the beginning extra virgin olive oil and wine were the specialization fields, but the call and the vocation of the grounds towards other alimentary kind were too inviting to resist them. So Vincenzo and his family decided to approach first the wheat sector, developing the Sicilian ancient durum wheats in particular, and then the preserves, all organic certified. The last ones are the most recent arrivals, Sicilian specialties with centuries of traditions, passed on trough the generations as the Sicilian Caponata - Azienda Agricola Biologica Adamo, the red onion jam, pistachios pesto, trapanese pesto with tuna and many others.

The ancient durum wheat varieties have recently been doing a comeback, once they were abandoned for their poor yield, nowadays they’ve been reconsidered for their extraordinary organoleptic properties and the characteristic aromas that distinguish themselves from the most common ones. The Russulidda is part of this category, a Sicilian ancient durum wheat which is a truly unique variety as benefits on health (low gluten content, facilitation of digestion, high lignin content that favours the circulatory system) and the aromatic typicalness. Fastuchera Azienda Agricola is a small Sicilian reality, starting from the ancient wheats cultivation to the transformation in hand made pasta, obtaining a Sicilian ancient wheat pasta from organic agriculture. Yesterday some new products have been presented, among which the Paccheri di Russulidda - Fastuchera Azienda Agricola, a typical format of the southern Italy gastronomic tradition which finds in this variety an original aromatic mark and inviting toasted perfumes.
