Rustichella logoAs the days get shorter, we start to get excited about fall feasting. We're dreaming of bowls of steaming pasta tossed with the best of the season's harvest. One of our favorite pantry staples for fall is farro pasta, a whole grain pasta, perfect for seasonal celebrations and special occasions. And since our friends at Rustichella d'Abruzzo have long held the reputation as one of the finest artisan pasta makers in Italy, today we're offering this pantry must-have to our customers at a special discount: $3 off Organic Farro Casareccia, Bucatini and Canestrini.

 Organic canestriniOrganic Farro Pasta from Rustichella d'Abruzzo 

  

Farro can be called the "original" wheat grain. Farro, Tritucum dicoccum, has been growing in the Mediterranean for thousands of years. Now enjoying a revival, there is much buzz about its health properties and flavor. Rustichella d'Abruzzo works with growers in central Italy who produce their grain under meticulous organic standards. Pasta made from this grain is not only higher in nutrition, but boasts an inherent 'al dente' texture, nutty flavor and gorgeous color. As with all their carefully prepared pastas, Rustichella d'Abruzzo uses only the best flour and water, a bronze die extrusion process, and slow drying times at low temperatures to affect a superior outcome.

  

Farro pasta is best enjoyed in simple preparations. Think oven roasted vegetables, fruity and pungent extra virgin olive oil, saut�ed hearty greens, crisped pancetta, or grilled sausages. Consider the following inspirations to complement farro pasta's flavor.

 

  • Casareccia (a hearty cut resembling a twisted tube) with roasted butternut squash, crisped pancetta and a generous sprinkling of Pecorino Romano cheese
  • Bucatini (a long pasta, thicker than spaghetti with a hole in its center) tossed with slow-roasted late-season tomatoes, anchovies and breadcrumbs
  • Canestrini (miniature shells) adorning an uncomplicated soup of vegetable stock with saut�ed cipolline onions and cremini mushrooms

     The Best of Sicily: Titone Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil 

    Every year we assemble a tasting panel of chefs, importers and buyers to sit down with the best Italian extra virgin olive oils, and compare notes over a blind taste test. Year after year, one brand stands out as a consistent winner: Titone.


    We are but one voice in a chorus of praise for this Sicilian olive oil. Moreover, the 2010 harvest has been awarded gold and silver medals at international competitions throughout Europe and the United States. Quality starts with the Titone family's devotion to sustainable, organic farming methods. Forty-seven acres of meticulously maintained hillsides in the Trapanesi Valley of Western Sicily produce this D.O.P. (Protected Designation of Origin) status olive oil.  

      

    Titone's magic is its perfect balance. You first encounter a heady aroma of green apple with grass that entices the taste is to come. At the top of the palate is a pleasant pungency, balanced with fresh fruit. Not heavy on the tongue, it gradually gives way to delicate spice, artichoke and a hint of rosemary. You are left with a long-lasting, tongue-tingling finish. Clean, fresh, and vibrant, this is perfect for drizzling on caprese salad, grilled meats and vegetables, and of course, your favorite pasta.  
     

    We can't think of a better complement to our organic farro pasta and it's available at a special discount for a limited time only!
