100% Sicilian Ancient Grain Semolina Pasta. Porous surface achieved through bronze extrusion. Tough structure due to the quality of our semolina. Slowly dried at low temperatures. The ORGANIC ANCIENT GRAINS LINE by Donna Itriya is made from a blend of Russello and Perciasacchi grains from organic farming. The wheat has found in the island the environmental conditions to thrive in over fifty specific local varieties. The lower gluten content in ancient Sicilian grains makes all the products derived from them lighter, more digestible, and easier to assimilate, with a lower likelihood of developing increasingly common intolerances, probably due to excessive consumption of modern wheat. Ancient grains, precisely because they are indigenous, are very resilient and grow spontaneously without the excessive use of fertilizers and pesticides. COOKING TIME – 13 minutes for al dente NET WEIGHT – 500 g.
