Monograno Felicetti Farro Ditalini Organic Pasta 12-Pack

The Felicetti family has been crafting the finest Pasta in Predazzo, Italy since 1908. Four generations later, their passion for cooking has never diminished. As we make our pasta, we make sure to honor this value by only using pure water and air from the land. This tradition is one of the reasons our pasta is sought after by world-class chefs.

Felicetti uses three different single, mono-varietal wheats to create Monograno. Kamut and Farro are ancient grains originating thousands of years ago in Egypt and the Middle East. Matt is a Modern Heritage grain. Being environmentally responsible is a core value of the Felicetti family.

Farro is a variety of durum wheat that is grown today in Umbria, Italy. It traces its roots back thousands of years to the Fertile Crescent, and was brought to Italy by early sailors, becoming a staple of the Roman empire. Farro is a Single Ancient grain durum wheat meaning that it has been largely unchanged by breeding, hybridization, or modification. When cooked, it releases a delicate fragrance of mace, fresh hazelnut and eggplant and tastes of crispy bread and peanut butter with a light finish of jujube berries.

Founded in 1908 in the Italian Alps in an area called the Dolomites, Felicetti is now managed by the 4th generation of the family. The family values their history as artisanal pasta makers while preserving the environment.

Throughout 4 generations of artisanal pasta making, Felicetti has created the perfect al dente pasta. It never over cooks, never sticks, and never boils over. Used by Michelin Starred Restaurants throughout Italy and the world, Monograno Felicetti has a reputation as one of the premier pastas of Italy. The pasta's trademarks are its flavor and that it holds "al dente" beyond the cooking time.
