Spinosi
Artisan egg pasta maker in Campofilone, Marche, working since 1933 and producing Maccheroncini di Campofilone PGI.
Spinosi is an artisan egg pasta maker in Campofilone, a hill village in the province of Fermo in the Marche region of Italy. According to the company, it has been working since 1933 and keeps alive the local tradition of thin dried egg pasta. Its official product page credits Nello Spinosi as the first artisan producer of Maccheroncini di Campofilone, the village speciality that is now protected in the EU as a PGI.
The company says it uses fresh eggs that are still broken by hand, durum wheat semolina, bronze dies and slow drying. Its Maccheroncini di Campofilone IGP contain 33.4% fresh eggs and no added water and cook in about a minute.
The range goes beyond the PGI strands. Spinosi Pasta all'uovo covers classic cuts such as tagliolini, fettuccine, tagliatelle and pappardelle, house creations like Spinosini, flavoured ribbons and soup pasta (quadrelli, grattata). Spinosi Zero+ is a gluten-free egg pasta made with legume and maize flours and presented as high in protein. Spinosi Freschi ripieni is a fresh filled pasta line with ravioli, tortellini and cappelletti. The company also sells sauces, oil and sweets.
All of this is egg pasta rather than water-based dried durum wheat pasta: the egg gives the dough its colour and elasticity, while semolina gives it structure. Spinosi pasta is served with meat ragù, butter or vegetable sauces, and the small soup cuts go into broth.
