DURUM WHEAT PASTA SENATORE CAPPELLI ORGANIC HALF SLEEVES 500 g

Oltresole organic half sleeves are made with Italian Senatore Cappelli durum wheat, a very ancient and nutritious variety of wheat mainly grown in southern Italy. Senatore Cappelli durum wheat is endowed with excellent nutritional qualities and is characterized by a high protein value, which is why half sleeves are to be considered a unique dish. This type of artisan pasta stands out for its lightness and rich and tasty flavor that evokes fields of straw-yellow wheat kissed by the sun. The highly digestible artisanal pasta is the ideal format for those who love full-bodied and delicious condiments such as Bolognese sauce or a genuine sauce made with fresh seasonal vegetables. Pasta with a low glycemic index does not weigh down and is easily digestible. To cook the artisanal half sleeves it will only take five minutes and then add the sauce you like best. Traces of soy and lupine may be present in the package of durum wheat pasta. WINE PAIRING: Senatore Cappelli durum wheat half sleeves are similar in flavor to the more traditional pasta and for this very reason very versatile in combinations. Combinations with fresh tomatoes or simple sauces with butter are particularly suitable for the mezze manicures. WELLNESS AND HEALTH: If you compare the nutritional values of a modern durum wheat pasta and those of an Italian Senatore Cappelli wheat pasta, the lower protein content but also the lower sugar content is evident. Furthermore, compared to the canonical 100 grams, Cappelli wheat pasta will provide more vitamins and minerals than modern durum wheat pasta for the same calories (or even less). CURIOSITY: The curious denomination is a recognition of Nazareno Strampelli, creator of the revolutionary grain, to the Marquis Raffaele Cappelli who allowed him to use a farm in Northern Puglia in which to plant the new seeds for experimental purposes. When in 1923 the geneticist selected the definitive variety of the new and revolutionary Cappelli wheat he had become a senator of the Kingdom of Italy, so he was introduced to the market under the name of Senatore Cappelli.
