Benedetto Cavalieri Pasta Integrale Biologica
Benedetto Cavalieri's organic wholegrain dry pasta from durum wheat semolina, in eight shapes.
Benedetto Cavalieri Pasta Integrale Biologica is the organic wholegrain range of the Benedetto Cavalieri factory in Maglie, Apulia. It is made from wholegrain semolina of organically grown durum wheat and water. Wholegrain milling keeps all parts of the kernel, including the germ, so the pasta is darker, has a stronger wheat aroma and contains more fibre than ordinary semolina pasta.
Like the rest of the range, it is dry durum wheat pasta made by the "Metodo Delicato": long kneading with cold water, bronze dies and slow drying at low temperature.
The line has eight shapes: long spaghetti, linguine and tagliatelle, and short eliche (similar to fusilli), fusilli, penne rigate, pennucce and mezzi rigatoni. The maker recommends the long shapes with vegetables, light sauces and Mediterranean dressings, eliche with fish or bean soups, and fusilli and penne with creamy sauces, cold pasta dishes and legumes. Olive oil and pesto also go well with this pasta.
