Morelli Tartufo Pappardelle: wide ribbon pasta flavoured with Italian truffle, Tuscan durum semolina + wheat germ, bronze-extruded and long slow-dried for an earthy, aromatic truffle pasta.

Earthy, woodland truffle over a warm, nutty wheat-germ depth; the rough bronze-die surface holds sauce and the wide ribbons give a tender-but-firm bite.

How to use it

Keep it simple so the truffle leads: truffle butter and Parmigiano Reggiano, a light cream sauce, fresh shaved truffle, or a delicate porcini sauce. Avoid heavy tomato sauces that mask the aroma.

The maker

Morelli

In the Tuscan village of San Romano near Pisa, the Morelli family has made pasta since 1860 — and five generations on, siblings Lucia, Antonio and Marco still run the mill their forebears built. What sets Morelli apart is one quiet act of restoration: they fold germe di grano (wheat germ), the nutrient-rich heart of the grain that industrial milling discards, back into their durum semolina. It lends a deep, toasty aroma of fresh-cut grain, a fuller flavour and a real boost of vitamin E and vegetable protein. The dough is bronze-drawn for a rough, sauce-gripping surface and dried slowly at low temperature — pasta that smells of the field as it cooks.
