All of our pasta is made in small batches using American grown, certified organic semolina (from durum wheat) & water only. Translating to 'lilies' in Italian, gigli is our most popular shape, since its hollow center fills with sauce so nicely for that perfect bite. It is a versatile pasta appropriate for many preparations - a simple pomodoro sauce, pesto, bolognese, anything you like! Our pasta is extruded through bronze dies to create its rough texture that clings to your sauce. We dry the pasta slowly at low temperature to maintain good tooth and chew while retaining the nutrients in the flour.
