The website describes the product as fresh pasta with buckwheat. Ingredients: wheat flour, buckwheat flour (23%), water and durum wheat semolina. Unlike the dry pizzoccheri of other makers, the base here is soft wheat flour and the pasta is fresh, so it is kept in the fridge and cooks faster.
The shape is the flat buckwheat ribbon of pizzoccheri. On the website the product sits in the Le Paste Lisce Speciali section, next to buckwheat tagliolini made from the same dough.
The classic dish is pizzoccheri alla valtellinese: the pasta is boiled with potatoes and cabbage and then dressed with butter, garlic and local cheese.
