RUSTICI

This unique pasta from Terre Bormane features a special twist, thanks to the addition of nutritious wheat germ, making it both flavourful and wholesome. Typically, during wheat milling, the germ is removed to preserve freshness, but in this process, the fresh wheat germ is cleverly reintroduced into the flour using specialised techniques, ensuring it is processed promptly to retain optimal flavour. As the pasta cooks, it releases a pleasant fresh wheat aroma into the kitchen, and the boiling water may take on a subtle green tint from the wheat germ. This Terre Bormane pasta is dried slowly at a cool temperature—never exceeding 40°C—ensuring a high-quality product. It is delicious even when simply drizzled with good olive oil.
