Liguori Integrali BIO
Liguori's organic wholegrain dry pasta made from wholemeal semolina of Italian durum wheat.
Liguori Integrali BIO is Liguori's organic wholegrain pasta. It is made from wholemeal semolina of organically grown Italian durum wheat. The maker explains that this whole milling keeps every part of the grain, including the germ with vitamin E and the bran with selenium, and that the pasta is a source of magnesium, iron, zinc and vitamin B1.
Like the other ranges, Integrali BIO is extruded through bronze dies and dried slowly at low temperature under certification. The protein content is 13%. The pasta is certified organic, the grain supply chain is tracked on a blockchain, and the pack is recyclable paper. This range does not carry the Pasta di Gragnano PGI.
Shapes: spaghetti, penne rigate, mezzi rigatoni, fusilli, farfalle and short mafalde.
Wholegrain dry durum wheat pasta has a nuttier taste and a darker colour. It pairs well with vegetables, pulses, pesto or simple olive oil sauces.
The range is made by Liguori, a pasta factory on Via dei Pastai in Gragnano whose history goes back to 1795. The company follows its certified "Liguori method": durum wheat from southern Italy, slow kneading with spring water from the Lattari Mountains, bronze dies and slow drying at low temperature.
