Company History:
Since 1860, Pastificio Morelli has been producing many inviting types of pasta with a secret: wheat germ, the company's true mark of distinction. Not to be found in normal pasta, Morelli re-incorporate the wheat germ into the semolina. Wheat germ is an ingredient that provides your body with important substances, such as vitamins, mineral salts, and protein. The artisan bronze extrusion and slow drying methods are the requirements for an incredible final result.
