BUSIATE TRAPANESI
$5.00
Trapani's Signature Twist
Busiate come from the province of Trapani in western Sicily, where the pasta was traditionally rolled by hand around a thin reed to create its long, spiralled shape. True to that tradition, our busiate are bronze-die extruded from 100% Sicilian durum wheat semolina and slowly dried at low temperatures, giving them a rough, porous surface and a firm bite. Each coil catches and holds sauce, especially our Pesto alla Trapanese, the region's classic pairing, or the Salsa di Pomodoro – Siccagno, made from a traditional Sicilian tomato grown without irrigation for dense flesh and naturally sweet flavour.
