Trofie Pasta
Weight: 500g
Trofie are fine twirls of pasta which have a nice bite to them as they remain quite firm when cooked. They are a traditional pasta shape of the Liguria region and are generally eaten with pesto, another Ligurian speciality. Trofie are perfect for pesto as this type of sauce clings to them really well. They also pair well with all tomato-based sauces.
Our handmade, artisanal pasta in traditional shapes and sizes is bronze die cut, dried at low temperatures and made between Basilicata and Puglia from exclusively Italian wheat.
Cooking time: 11 minutes.
Why we love Pasta Raguso:
- Good to eat even without sauce!
- Zero km supply chain
- Zero waste
- Zero pesticides
- Made from only local wheat
Ingredients
Durum wheat semolina, water.
Our Producer
Pasta Raguso
The Raguso family have been farmers for generations, sowing and cultivating wheat on their land in Puglia and Basilicata, two areas particularly suited for the best Italian wheat.
Their farm is modern and organized with production cycles with low environmental impact: Each process is carefully controlled: sowing, cultivation, harvesting, storage, grinding, production and packaging of pasta. The family use artisanal methods processing and drying the pasta in a natural way to protect its organoleptic properties.
The supply chain is short and “zero km”, the production waste of wheat is reused as feed (zero pesticides), and packaging is produced from recyclable paper.
They use the stables - where the animals that feed in fallow fields live - to produce biomass. Our pellets are self-produced, starting from pruning residues, ensuring a functional reuse of wood waste. Our goal for 2022 is to accurately quantify the carbon footprint of each single pack of pasta, trying more and more to aim for zero.
