Benedetto Cavalieri | Organic Whole Wheat Mezzi Rigatoni 500 g

 3,80

Naturally rich in fibre and with a noteworthy chewiness when cooked, the Mezzi Rigatoni have a strong taste of wheat.

The diameter, combined with the ridges that the Mezzi Rigatoni bring, make them ideal to retain sauces on the entire surface, inside and out.

Try the Mezzi Rigatoni with chunkier meat or vegetable-based sauces like ‘ragù alla bolognese’ – red sauce made with ground meat, onions, celery, carrots and tomatoes – and with refined dairy-based sauces, like four cheese or a mushroom cream sauce

WHAT MAKES PASTA CAVALIERI SPECIAL
Benedetto Cavalieri’s wholemeal Mezzi Rigatoni have an exceptional consistency when chewed. The ‘Delicate Method’ invented by Cavalieri, with about 40 hours of low-temperature special drying, generates an homogeneous distribution of proteins and carbohydrates. This gives Mezzi Rigatoni an homogeneous consistency from the core to the surface and a ‘delicious chewiness’ when cooked al dente

Description

NOTEWORTHY ORGANIC BROWN PASTA

«Every package of pasta will gain credit from the previous one».
With this forceful message to his 83 collaborators, Benedetto Cavalieri inaugurated his Mill and Pasta Factory with the specific intent to produce first choice pasta. It was July the 7th 1918.

Benedetto Cavalieri Pasta is widely known for the keenness for pasta, the cure and the constant research for the best quality that the Cavalieri Family hands out from generation to generation.

Row materials are rigorously selected. They grow in purposely chosen fields especially on the hills of Apulia and Basilicata (South of Italy); the durum wheat is cultivated without the usual massive use of chemical fertilizers that increases the quantities at the expense of quality.

The Founder developed a method, called “Delicate Method”: the long kneading, the slow pressing, drawing and drying at a low-temperature permit to preserve the nutritional values of the durum wheat, its taste and typical flavour and a completely natural consistency which is still so highly esteemed by gourmets.

Since 2005, Pastificio Benedetto Cavalieri has been appointed Learning Centre of Slow Food University of Gastronomic Sciences of Pollenzo (Piemonte). The thematic one-week seminars on pasta-making are attended by students who come from the five continents.

The diameter, combined with the ridges that the Mezzi Rigatoni bring, make them ideal to retain sauces on the entire surface, inside and out.
Try the Mezzi Rigatoni with chunkier meat or vegetable-based sauces like ‘ragù alla bolognese’ – red sauce made with ground meat, onions, celery, carrots and tomatoes – and with refined dairy-based sauces, like four cheese or a mushroom cream sauce.
