Organic Wholemeal Timilia Fusilli

100% organic Timilia pasta, the result of a fully Sicilian supply chain that monitors the wheat from cultivation through to the drawing process. Timilia, also known as Tumminia, is an ancient short-cycle durum wheat variety already present in Sicily during the Greek era: a true jewel of Sicilian agriculture. Stone milling preserves the wheat germ, rich in vitamins and trace elements, while bronze drawing gives the surface that characteristic roughness which, combined with the shape, perfectly holds any sauce. Slow drying at low temperatures and the delicate quality of the Timilia gluten ensure excellent digestibility: a pasta that does not feel heavy and does not cause bloating.

Wholemeal durum wheat semolina from ancient Timilia* (Tumminia) stone-ground, and mineral water. Nothing more.
*from organic farming – Antichi Granai supply chain, Sicily

Cook the fusilli in plenty of salted water following the cooking times on the label, drain al dente, and toss them directly in the sauce with a ladle of cooking water to enhance their creaminess. As this is whole wheat pasta, it may require 1–2 minutes longer than white pasta. The intense, slightly nutty flavor of the Timilia, combined with its spiral shape, makes it ideal for Trapanese pesto, Bronte pistachio pesto, pasta alla Norma, sauce with black olives and Pantelleria capers, sarde a beccafico, or summer pasta salads with cherry tomatoes and mozzarella. To complete your pantry, pair them with Sicilian tomato purée or organic chickpeas and lentils.
