La Molisana Extra di Lusso
La Molisana's egg pasta range: ten bronze-drawn egg specialities made in-house, from tagliatelle and pappardelle nests to lasagne and small soup shapes.
La Molisana Extra di Lusso is the egg pasta range of La Molisana. Its name and pack recall the history of the pasta factory, and the egg specialities are made in-house at the La Molisana plant in Campobasso from durum wheat semolina and eggs. Like the brand's dry pasta, they are drawn through bronze dies.
The range has ten items: nests of Tagliolini n.200, Taglierini n.202, Tagliatelle n.203, Fettuccine n.204 and Pappardelle n.205; Lasagne n.220, sheets for baked lasagne; and small egg shapes – Garganelli n.225, Funghetti n.207, Farfalline n.208 and Quadrucci n.212, the last three for broth. Nests and small shapes come in 250 g packs, the lasagne in 500 g. Cooking is short, from 4 to 9 minutes.
Egg tagliatelle and pappardelle are the classic partners of meat ragù such as bolognese and of cream and mushroom sauces; the brand suggests Tagliatelle n.203 with truffle. The pasta contains gluten and egg.
