The wheat destined to be transformed into the selected pasta of the “la Nostrana” line is grown in the countryside near the Pastificio Mozzo in the Veneto region.

Mozzo has involved the local farmers in our project and objective of growing durum wheat by carefully analysing and selecting the soil and following the plant’s entire cycle, pampering the young seedlings and the plants right up to the harvest. The result is durum wheat with very high protein content - 14% - and organoleptic characteristics that are among the best in the world. The production method is still deliberately traditional and our pasta makers carefully follow the entire process. Bronze drawing and a very long drying process, of more than 32 hours at a low temperature, give the pasta a rougher texture and ensure that it always cooks “al dente”.

Tasting notes

The bronze dies create small abrasions on the surface of the dough which result in a particular porosity and rough surface of the pasta. The roughness and porosity of the pasta collect all the flavours and colours of the sauce. Bronze drawing also requires the use of high-quality flours and very long drying processes. This process preserves the organoleptic quality and the nourishing properties of the raw materials.

Most industrial pasta factories dry the pasta for 3-4 hours at temperatures reaching 100° C, at the expense of the nutritional quality of the product. One of the main characteristics of top-quality pasta is that it is easy to digest, thanks to the enzymes that is stimulates. The organoleptic properties are enhanced by long drying cycles at low temperatures, which preserve the full and genuine taste of handmade pasta.

Fun facts

Pastificio Mozzo is a young family pasta-making company that focuses on the commitment to source and select top quality raw materials and respect their nature throughout the production process.

Mozzo pasta is made exclusively with 100% Italian wheat. The origin of the raw material is guaranteed and complies with the strict regulations to safeguard “Made in Italy” products. Sun, water and Italian wheat are the ingredients.
Family and pasta share the same ingredients.
The Mozzo family is strongly linked to the territory, not only to the Veronese countryside, home to the Mozzo family businesses, but also to the whole Veneto region where most of the farms with which it works are located. For the Mozzo family the pasta-making tradition is deeply rooted in the local territory.

To underline the connection with the territory a designer has created a special packaging for “la Nostrana”, with the images of the most famous sites in Veneto.
