Seaweed Pasta – Linguini 500g

Amazing seaweed pasta from Grania. First time in the UK.

The latest innovation from award-winning pasta makers, Grania in Naples is this seaweed linguini. Acclaimed by nutritionalists for its iodine content, combined with quality Italian durum wheat and by chefs for its wonderful taste and texture. Outstanding for fish dishes.

The seaweed linguini is bronze extruded to create a rough surface for binding sauces and dried very slowly to lock in all the taste and goodness. For anyone who enjoys fish-based pasta dishes, this is an absolute must-try.

THE AWARD WINNING GRANIA PASTA RANGE

Le Gemme del Vesuvio Vesuvius Gems is the name chosen by Grania for this range of gourmet pasta. In the Volcano’s shadow, a group of artisan pasta makers apply their art every day to produce a pasta which looks and tastes fabulous.

Only 3 ingredients are used. The finest durum wheat, the purest water and time. Lots of it.

At Grania, they have revived an ancient Neapolitan production process which involves drawing the pasta through bronze moulds to produce a rough surface which invites the sauce to bind. The pasta is then dried very slowly at low temperatures to maintain all of its natural taste and goodness.

It keeps its shape and consistency perfectly when cooking and the al dente moment is very forgiving in case you just miss it!

The pasta has a lovely golden yellow colour and is another reason they call them Vesuvius Gems!

From: Naples, Campania, Italy

Grania’s Bucatini and Trofie pasta have both won Gold Medal at the Great Taste Awards. Widely considered the Oscars of artisan food in the UK, this bears testimony to the quality of this fine pasta range.
