Old-fashioned rolling
For flavour and quality similar to fresh pasta.
Less and less popular with manufacturers, this method may be low-automation and low-yield but offers definite flavour benefits.
As with home-made pasta flattened with a rolling pin, this traditional manufacturing method, the dough is not subject to high pressure or a significant rise in temperature.
The semolina is mixed slowly with water, eggs and the recipe’s other ingredients. Then, our pasta craftsmen decide when the dough reaches the ideal texture for rolling! The pasta is then flattened by successive rollers, and cut with a knife. The dough is rolled so thinly that our pasta needs to cook for barely 5 minutes!
All our Tagliatelle and Butterfly pasta are cold rolled until very thin, so they taste as good as fresh pasta.
