  • About

Fresh egg pasta is made using free-range eggs and 00 (doppio zero) flour, the same tender wheat used to make cakes, rather than durum semolina. The dough is very malleable and can be formed into many shapes. Emilia-Romagna is the centre of egg pasta production and home to lasagne, tortelli and tortellini.
