Vescera Ancient Grain Pasta, Penne Rigate -Low Gluten

Tastemaker Market Curated by Ric Orlando

 I am one of only few vendors in the US offering this organic ancient grain pasta from Sicily. Vescera is very small family owned pastaficio. I hand selected this pasta myself after a through tasting at the Azienda in Corleone.  

Fact Sicilian Ancient grains are lower gluten and are different gluten than is in most of our food in th US. The Sicilian ancient grains contain TRADITIONAL GLUTEN Strains from 2000 year old semolina varieties. Though it is not recommended for those with Celiac, it may be perfect for those with Gluten Sensitivities as it is easily digestible and has never been modified or sprayed with toxic chemicals

.

Penne are the standard for rich sauces like ragu, puttanesca and marianara. They are made with organic ancient Sicilian grains, such as: Perciasacchi/Tumminia/Russello. Their bronze drawing makes them  rough enough to retain seasonings and flavors.

Can eat it every night

It’s not just the low carb content in this pasta (amazingly low)— add that to cooking it to the perfect al dente point, and add anything for the best dinner of the week. I’ve used sausage, mixed the pasta with red peppers, shallots, and greens… you get the idea. A side by side with the pasta I always used— there’s no comparison.
I’ve turned my bestie on to this, and have sent it to my son in Oregon, hoping to spread the deliciousness out west.
Really perfect, Ric, and the pasta with a bit of the Sicilian olive oil, with some herbs—- deliziosa.
Grazie!

The pasta was delicious!

I made a simple dinner of pasta & broccoli and the flavor of the pasta was amazing, I did not have to add any salt. Most importantly, I didn’t have any stomach issues.
7 minutes was the perfect al dente!
