Pappardelle with Wheat Germ "Antico Pastificio Morelli

Typical Tuscan pasta, similar to tagliatelle but 1.5 cm wide.

Produced with Tuscan durum wheat semolina, handmade, bronze-drawn, and dried at low temperature. They are characterised by the presence inside them of wheat germ, the heart of the wheat grain, rich in flavour and nutrients. Normally during the milling of the wheat grain, the germ is removed, to facilitate the preservation of the flour. Pastificio Morelli, through the use of artisanal techniques, manages to reinsert it, because it is processed fresh immediately.

After years of using wheat germ, the Antico Pastificio Morelli has succeeded in obtaining a pasta with an extraordinary and unmistakable flavour. During cooking, an intense aroma of wheat is released and the water is tinged slightly green by the presence of the fresh wheat germ.

With their excellent wheat flavour, they are perfect for express cooking, combined with traditional meat sauces, even in white.
