Description
The Tuscan Maccherone is inspired by the local tradition, which includes among its various shapes a pasta suited for the most important and robust sauces. A “sturdy” shape is what you need to best enhance the meat and game ragù typical of our region.
At the Artisan Pastificio Martelli in the ancient village of Lari, nestled among the Pisan hills, tradition and quality are paramount. Unlike modern factories, we use slow, low-temperature methods to craft our pasta, preserving the rich flavor of Italian durum wheat and ensuring excellent sauce absorption and digestibility. Our pasta is bronze-drawn and dried at temperatures below 36°C over 50 hours, a painstaking process that retains its nutritional value and enhances its unique taste and texture.
Our commitment to tradition extends to our sourcing, using the finest local grains milled by Molino Borgioli. Each batch is carefully mixed with cold water and handcrafted by passionate artisans. The drying process is meticulously managed in wooden chambers, adapting to daily climate conditions, ensuring each spaghetti strand is perfect. The final touch is the packaging, done lovingly by hand, preserving the quality and authenticity of our product.
