“Pici is one of those pasta shapes I fell in love with in Tuscany, and I wanted to make them with the wheat of my own island. Thick, long strands of pasta with a hearty bite that stand up to a rich ragù or a simple cacio e pepe. Made with Sicilian durum wheat, bronze-drawn and slowly dried, this is pasta made with patience, just as it should be.”
- Made with Sicilian durum wheat, grown and milled close to where the pasta is produced.
- Bronze-drawn (trafilata al bronzo) to create a naturally rough surface that helps sauces cling to every piece.
- Slowly dried at low temperatures over two to three days, respecting the character and flavour of the wheat.
- Its thick, straight strands (pici dritti) have a chewy, substantial texture that carries rich, rustic sauces.
The result is a pici pasta with character, texture and the unmistakable simplicity of good Sicilian pasta.
Gaetano works as a miller with decades of care, respecting rhythms set by soil and climate. Only Sicilian durum wheat goes into every batch, giving a clear trace from field to fork. Tradition shapes his method and standards; every step preserves the qualities locked in the grain.
