Benedetto CAVALIERI is a pasta legend!
Since 1918, four generations have led the family business.
Located in Apulia, near Lecce, Benedetto Cavalieri preserves unmatched expertise in producing durum wheat pasta with unparalleled firmness.
Some say Benedetto Cavalieri pasta is the pope’s favorite pasta at the Vatican!
The variety of wheat used and the Apulian terroir certainly explain this difference.
The entire process allows the dough to develop without being "brutalized" in the molds. Slow drying at low temperature ensures perfect cooking resistance.
Until now, their pasta was almost impossible to find in Switzerland...
