Durum Wheat Pasta – Orzo
$10.00- Packaging: Bags, Bulk
- Shape: Small Pasta
Orzo means “barley” in Italian because of its grain-shape. This pasta, shaped like a melon seed, belongs to what Italians called Pastina: pasta that is used in soups. Unfortunately this shape is often made with very low-gluten quality semolina, so it becomes mushy and unpleasant. Unlike common orzos however, this orzo from Rustichella d’Abruzzo keeps its shape and texture and has a real, pleasurable bite and texture.
Especially great for use in soups, but also wonderful as a contorno (“side dish”) with pesto or in salads.
Cooking Time: 6-8 minutes.

Durum Wheat Pasta – Penne Ructiche
$10.00- Shape: Short Pasta
Primo grano meaning “first grain” in Italian, was the idea of pastamaker Gianluigi Peduzzi, who wanted to bring back the flavors of authentic pasta made with 100% Abruzzo-grown wheat like those that his grandfather, Gaetano Sergiacomo, made at his mill in the town of Penne at the turn of the last century.
Through a research study sponsored by Rustichella d’Abruzzo, the Istituto dei Cereali di Foggia identified local heritage wheat varieties including San Carolo, Varano, and Mongibello, which proved ideal for pasta making. Every year, Rustichella d’Abruzzo and a small group of farmers from the surrounding hills of Pianella do a special planting of these selected varieties. After the June harvest, the wheat is trucked immediately to a state-of-the-art mill in Puglia to be ground into semolina. The soft and fragrant semolina is used to make some of the traditional shapes made by Gaetano Sergiacomo, such as Sagne a Pezzi and Penne Rustiche.
Wrapped in a bright green paper bag with white sprigs of wheat to celebrate these 100% Abruzzo grains, PrimoGrano is pasta made for the true pasta lover. Fragrant as freshly baked bread with a supple and soft texture, this pasta is best enjoyed with just extra virgin olive oil or a light sauce to let the unique flavors shine through.
Cooking Time: 7-9 minutes.

Cooking Time: 10-12 minutes.

Durum Wheat Pasta – Spaghettoni
$10.00- Shape: Long Pasta
Primo grano meaning “first grain” in Italian, was an idea of pasta-maker Gianluigi Peduzzi, who wanted to bring back the flavors of authentic pasta made with 100% Abruzzo-grown wheat like those that his grandfather, Gaetano Sergiacomo, made at his mill in the town of Penne at the turn of the last century.
Spaghettoni means larger spaghetti. A regular spaghetto is 1.95 mm thick, and Spaghettoni are 2.10 mm thick. The supple, toothsome bite of Spaghettoni is especially satisfying.
PrimoGrano Spaghettoni are ideal to served with simple sauces, such as in Spaghetti alla Nicolina. The simpler the preparation, the better, so one can taste the unique flavor of the Abruzzo-grown wheat.

Sa Fregula Sarda Durum Wheat Pasta – 1 lb 1.6 oz
$10.00Sa Fregula Sarda or fregola is a type of durum wheat pasta in the shape of small, medium or large round balls measuring between 2 and 6 millimetres, roasted in the oven and served with sauces, in broth and with various condiments based on meat and fish. The name fregula comes from the Latin “ferculum”, i.e. crumb, fragment.
They can be cooked as a risotto, a pasta dish or used as the basis for a soup, and even in a cold summer salad. We can now reproduce the age-old manual procedure in our factory in which the irregular shaped balls are obtained by working the semolina in a terracotta bowl (known as a “sa scivedda”) and then, roasted in the oven.
