Description
-
Authentic regional shape: Pici is a classic pasta shape from Siena and neighbouring Tuscan regions. It’s like a thicker, rustic spaghetti—rolled by hand to achieve uneven thickness that gives texture and character.
-
Simple, premium ingredients: Made with just durum wheat semolina and water—no eggs or unnecessary additives—preserving true pasta flavour and allowing sauces to shine.
-
Artisan manufacturing: Bronze-die extrusion produces a rough porous surface, and slow drying at low temperatures helps preserve aroma and texture.
-
Rich nutritional profile: With approx. 352 kcal per 100g, 13.5 g protein, and low fat, this pasta offers energy and substance.
