Festoni pasta of the Petrilli company is organic, its name comes from its shape of hanging decorations during celebrations. This pasta is characterized by wide, wavy cuts, similar to ribbons or fettuccine, but with rippled edges.
It is ideal for rich, flavorful dishes, as its shape and texture allow it to hold sauces well. Festoni pasta pairs well with meat-based sauces, creamy sauces, or rich vegetable dressings.
What makes Petrilli pasta so special?
Petrilli produces pasta using two varieties of Italian wheat that have different and complementary characteristics, the Hathor and the Senatore Cappelli, both are grown in organic agriculture. Hathor gives the pasta protein and an extraordinary gluten quality, Senatore Cappelli gives fragrance and unique nutritional properties.
The wheat is slowly milled, at Molino De Vita in Casalvecchio di Puglia, the grain of the semolina is very coarse and the extraction yield low. The semolina is processed into pasta at Pastificio Sorrentino, in Gragnano, bronze-drawn and dried at low temperatures in small static cells.
The company always puts the environment first: they only use energy produced by hydroelectric power plants in the Dolomites. Chemicals are banned from their pasta production, instead, social responsibility is the key point for an ethic path.

For Petrilli, the link with the land is very strong: theyʼve been farming with organic techniques since 1988 in a very old settlement, Motta della Regina, in Apulia.
Their goal was to recover native strains, renouncing to high yields per hectare and the use of chemicals to develop an environmentally sustainable production system, in which they take advantage of the soilʼs natural fertility and foster the environmentʼs biodiversity.
