Ingredient Analysis and Taste
- 🌱 Ancient Perciasacchi Grain: An indigenous variety subjected to delicate stone milling. It preserves the wheat germ intact, offering an excellent protein content (12.6g per 100g) and an excellent source of fiber (5.3g).
- 🧑🍳 Bronze-Drawn: Gives the generous surface of the pacchero an extraordinary porosity, designed to capture and hold onto even the richest and most slippery sauces.
- 🌡️ The Value of Slow Drying: Unlike industrial pastas dried rapidly at temperatures over 90°C, this product rests for days at 40-45°C. This method preserves lysine (an essential amino acid) and prevents the formation of furosine, protecting intestinal villi and ensuring unparalleled digestibility.

🍷 The Taste Ambassador recommends:
Be very careful during the cooking process! The gluten in ancient grains like Perciasacchi is much more delicate and less "rubbery" than that of industrial grains. To ensure the large pacchero shape doesn't flatten or break in the pot, cook it in abundant water at a gentle, never violent, boil. Drain it while firmly "al dente" and finish cooking by gently tossing it in a pan with your sauce—I suggest a swordfish and eggplant sauce—adding a bit of the cooking water. The starch will do the rest, creating a spectacular creamy texture.
