Made with 100% Italian Durum Wheat Semolina mixed with water from Gragnano. Italian wheat is a softer wheat, naturally has less gluten. Easier for Digestion.
Afeltra only uses traditional bronze extruding machines, giving the artisanal pasta a rough texture with many pores which help to better absorb the pasta sauce when finishing the dish. Afeltra Spaghetti Chitarra are also slowly dried at a low temperature for up to 48 hours which helps the protein structure in the pasta stay strong allowing for a better al dente texture!
