Description

Before being ground, the grain is stone-shelled and carefully purified, reaching very high safety and health standards.
The result of the numerous grinding phases is a very pure semolina , with an amber yellow color, with a pleasantly grainy consistency, perfect to be mixed with water with low mineral characteristics originating in the heart of the Matese Massif .This is the raw material that characterizes our pasta . Like our Ditaloni rigati 42: thimbles, tubes, tubes, smooth or striped , differ in diameter and length. They take their name from the thimbles that were used to protect the fingers during sewing sessions, or from the tubes, which they are inspired by with different sizes.
In any case, what they have in common is their belonging to the large family of tubular pasta. They are generally associated with the little ones, because they are "small in size" and therefore easier to chew. Ours are all rigorously bronze-drawn, have a delightfully porous surface, important thicknesses and a protein index of 14% which guarantees excellent cooking resistance .
Characteristic especially appreciated for these formats that accompany soups and broths , preparations in which the ability to resist stress and prolonged cooking is a fundamental element.
