Spaghetti & Mandolino offers you only quality products: Italian pasta and rice all&' in our catalog for sale online they have important nutritional values that indicate high levels of product quality, so much so that they are used by great chefs and great restaurants.

It is always important to eat healthy and control the quality of the product that will end up on our plates. The best thing would be to always eat organic pasta with whole durum wheat semolina, rich in fibers and protective antioxidants, as well as free of residues deriving from artificial pesticides and excessive fertilization. As a good rule, it would be to focus on whole wheat pasta and avoid “refined” pasta, which are completely free of polyphenols and protective and anti-inflammatory substances for the body, as well as the substances contained in wheat germ. Wheat germ is in fact a concentrate of nutrients such as amino acids, fatty acids, mineral salts, B vitamins and tocopherols (vitamin E), which are eliminated

during the refining process.

Choice of rice: semifine, fine, semintregral, whole wheat

Certain precautions are also important when choosing rice. This type of food, originally imported from &' Asia as a thickener for sauces but then used as a real ingredient as it is extremely versatile in the kitchen, has many types and classifications of different properties and qualities. There are the common original rice, semi-fine, fine and superfine. The qualities, on the other hand, are: white rice (refined), which is stripped of the integument that covers it and then brushed with glucose and talc before being polished (made shiny) with seed oil and vaseline; and brown rice, which is recommended for those who suffer from nutritional deficiencies as refining impoverishes rice from its natural nutritional components. Furthermore, organic brown rice keeps its properties intact: it undergoes only a passage through cork rollers to be deprived of the inedible outer part of the grain, the husk, and it preserves 100% of the wheat germ, rich in vitamins A, D and E. Then there is also the organic semi-wholemeal, which is rubbed a second time and preserves 50% of the

original germ.

Spelt pasta, Matt, Kamut, with egg

The pasta factories

How can we forget two flagships - perhaps among the most renowned names in Italy: Pastificio Felicetti and Gragnano in Corsa. Two completely different types of pasta, a decidedly cross-cutting offer for Felicetti with its Matt, Senatore Cappelli, Farro and Kamut wheat lines, while in the southern Italian tradition for Gragnano in Corsa with its Gragnano IGP pasta. As you may have understood, two opposing locations (Predazzo for Felicetti and Gragnano for Gragnano in Corsa), two people at odds with one goal and the passion to achieve it: to differentiate themselves and make Italian pasta inimitable. And then Pastificio Temporin with its egg pasta, Stoppato for quinoa and gluten-free pasta and ready-made risottos, Pila Vecia for Vialone Nano rice and Riseria Cremonesi with all its types of rice.
All we have to do is wish you bon appetit!
