Pasta and Sauces

These are artisanal pastas.

That doesn’t mean expensive – the Marella bundles make a lot of pasta, with each serving costing pennies more than a blue-box macaroni – but it does mean first-rate.

We want to say this because we’ve had some customers favor fresh pasta over dried, and that’s not really an issue of quality. While Good fresh pasta is wonderful with delicate dishes, quality dried pasta is perfect for these sauces below and for most other meals. It’s the most common kind eaten in Italy – except that most Italians eat a far better variety than offered in much of America. We’ve brought the good stuff home, and paired it with sauces so outstanding that we just don’t make any from scratch any longer. They’re finally done it!

We’d like to correct the low-carb mistake.

Not that it’s a mistake to balance your carbohydrates – it isn’t – and it’s good to include protein and fat in your diet.

But “carb” has become a term so broad that it includes foods as different in digestion as they are in taste.

Of course our pasta tastes better than a blue-box macaroni, but it’s also better for you. It’s slow dried, over a period of days at a low temperature, in a method that produces much less starch than the mass-produced fast-drying process.

Our pastas are made from high-quality grains, and our sauces feature light sugar – some have none at all, and are able to beat the acidic bite of other sauces by using exceptional fresh tomatoes – and no high-fructose corn syrup.
