Zio Pasquale Orecchiette with Toasted Wheat 500g

“Zio Pasquale” Orecchiette with Toasted Wheat are one of the most authentic delicacies of the Apulian culinary tradition. Handcrafted in Ceglie Messapica, they are made according to the traditional Apulian orecchiette recipe, using a selection of high-quality semolina enriched with toasted wheat, an ingredient that symbolizes Apulian peasant cuisine.

The roasted wheat gives the pasta its characteristic dark color and a delicate toasty aroma, making every dish unique and full of character. The rough surface and firm texture allow the orecchiette to perfectly hold onto any sauce, enhancing its flavor with every bite.

Made by the skilled hands of those who preserve tradition and cherish the authenticity of ingredients from the Apulian region, these orecchiette are perfect with tomato sauces, mushrooms, sausage, turnip greens, turnip greens, artisanal pestos, and cheese-based sauces, but they’re also extraordinary with just a simple drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of salted ricotta.
