FUSILLI DE CECCO 34 – 12x1kg
Fusilli comes from Campania and belong to the short, straight cut family of pasta. In the past, Fusilli were made by hand according to a method that was passed down from one generation to the next. You had to rapidly twist a strand of spaghetti around a knitting needle with a skilled hand. The term “fusillo” comes from “fuso” (spindle) which was the tool used by spinners. This pasta is particularly good with meat and fish based sauces or with condiments made with ricotta. It is also perfect with vegetable sauces too that are prepared with a tomato sauce with peppers, aubergines, olives and capers.

Culatello Traditional without rind
A stunning, naturally aged ham that's justifiably dubbed the king of salumi. Salted and hung for almost a year, this ham relies on the climate of the flatlands of the Po river to give it its unique sweet taste. Made using a whole ham that is then cured and cut back until only the sweetest "fillet" remains, the art of making culatello has been passed down through generations and is still made by small producers adhering to the old traditions. To do full justice to this magnificent product, serve as the centrepiece of a grand platter of mixed cured meats.
