Sapori di Valeggio: the charm of handmade

Our Tortellino di Valeggio is a unique delicacy, characterized by a very thin dough and a delicate yet flavorful filling. This culinary masterpiece results from the meticulous selection of the finest raw materials by Veronica and Enza: their experience and dedication guarantee a high-quality product that encapsulates the authentic flavors of our land.
 

The love legend of Tortellini di Valeggio

The birth of the Tortellino di Valeggio is wrapped in a romantic legend.
It is said that Silvia, a beautiful nymph of the Mincio River, fell in love with the noble Malco, servant of Giangaleazzo Visconti. To seal their love, Silvia gifted Malco a golden silk handkerchief tied up. However, the jealousy of Isabella, also in love with Malco, led to accusations of witchcraft against Silvia and Malco's imprisonment. The story tells that Silvia managed to free Malco, and together they jumped into the Mincio River, where they lived happily and freely ever after.

Since then, the women of the village recreate this knot: by kneading, rolling out the dough by hand, and adding a savory filling. This was then knotted like the legendary handkerchief to remember this love story.
 

A female-led pasta factory

Enza, with her touch as a true Maestra Pastaia, ensures that every single tortellino is a work of art, with a thin dough tied according to tradition.
With her extensive experience, she leads the production staff from the selection of materials to the dosing of ingredients. Her skill in preparing the tortellini is a true spectacle: every square of dough is tied with precision, enclosing a tasty and perfectly balanced filling. Enza's firmness and sweetness ensure that each phase of production respects tradition, offering our customers an excellent product.
