There are many pasta producers in Italy, but Spaghettoni Italian Pasta di Gragnano is a reality that stands out from almost everyone. Spaghettoni Italian Pasta di Gragnano differs from other artisanal pasta thanks to the elimination of the production line because the farmer has also become the producer of pasta, in a similar process to that of the wine sector, where the product of the vines is turned into an excellent wine by the very producer. The pasta produced is the result of a careful selection of the best hard wheat, bronze drawing, and drying at low temperatures. How it is made It is made from 100% Organic Italian wheat. They are handcrafted according to the Gragnano tradition to keep all the flavors: work on a bronze rolling mill, careful kneading, and Cirillo natural drying. This excellent durum wheat pasta is worked in the bronze mill and dried for a long time to develop all their flavors. The large spaghettoni dries for 3 days, which preserves the scents and the hardness conferred by the durum wheat used. Spaghettoni Italian Pastai Gragnanesi I.G.P.
