BIO Mezze Maniche – Pasta Mannetti
Pasta Mannetti represents the historical heritage of a territory nestled between Antrodoco and Amatrice, where organic production is a mission to protect the local Biodistrict. BIO Mezze Maniche are made from a rigorous selection of durum wheat varieties grown in Italy without the use of synthetic chemicals, ensuring a healthy, wholesome product with an authentic, time-honoured flavour. The combination of organic semolina and pure water from local springs creates a supple and lively dough, patiently transformed to preserve all the nutritional and organoleptic properties of the original wheat grain.
The secret behind Mannetti’s quality lies in its rejection of industrial speed. The Mezze Maniche are extruded through dies to obtain a rough, porous surface, essential for holding sauces and delivering an engaging tactile experience on the palate. The subsequent slow drying process takes place at consistently low temperatures, a method that preserves the natural aromas of the wheat and ensures exceptional firmness during cooking. This distinctive “strength” emerges with every bite, offering an elastic and firm texture that makes them a preferred choice for haute cuisine and fine dining.
As a PAT product of Lazio, these BIO Mezze Maniche carry the official recognition of a flavour deeply connected to the memory and heritage of the region. Sustainability does not stop at cultivation: the pasta factory adopts a low environmental impact approach, minimising plastic and using exclusively recyclable paper bags. Choosing Mannetti’s BIO Retail range means supporting a short supply chain that values craftsmanship and transparency, offering safe, digestible organic pasta capable of transforming every recipe into a tribute to the land and its ancient traditions.
