Organic pasta |
|
Since Romans time, Sicily has been regarded as the "granary" of Italy & even today, the "refinited" hard wheat found in Sicily is still considered as one of the best in the world for making high quality pasta.
At Barbagallo, the organically produced hard wheat is prepared in the company's own milling facility adjacent to the low temperature drying pasta production lines.
The consistent high quality of Barbagallo's organic pasta relies heavily on the tried & tested methdology of drying at low temperatures rather than subjecting the pasta to the high temperature techniques employed by many of Barbagallo's large-scale high volume competitors |

|
In this way & employing the techniques developed over 10 decadens of experience, all the vital characteristics are maintained along the slow production process.

It is not necessary an equipped laboratory to understand the difference of taste and flavor, everyone can do it easy comparing Barbagallo’s pastas dressed only by a bit of extra-virgin olive oil
Barbagallo’s pasta is one of the very few in the world made only from 100% organic wheat from Siciliy, the company was already under organic control before current regulations until reached a total conversion to organic. .

Along this natural evolution has played an important role the strict co-operation with Poppe Braam, who on 1992 founded Do-It b.v., encouraging Barbagallo to give always more importance to develop the area of bio The policy of the company is not to stress sales but to make pasta with passion according to art; this is possible also because there is already a circle of few old reliable customers&friends who appreciate the product and the particular premises. |

Making pasta is a Family tradition and there was a time when every Sunday dinner the whole big family was joint at grandfather Angelo home exchanging experiences and fun about best origin of Sicilian wheat and its pasta items.
This tradition is still alive by ours close customers&friends and final consumers, because a natural pasta dish is always an healthy and positive time of the day to enjoy life.
