Linguine
Linguine pasta is flattened spaghetti originating from the Ligurian tradition in the city of Genoa. Also known as Bavette or Trenette in Italy, this delicious pasta is holds sauce well, and is a delicious pair for pesto, fish and shellfish sauces, tomato based or heavier cheese sauces.
The True Taste of Italian Pasta
- Not all pasta is created equal. While modern industrial pasta is shaped using Teflon dies for speed and efficiency, this creates a smooth surface that causes sauce to slip off, collecting at the bottom of your plate. Our pasta, instead, is made using bronze-cut dies – a traditional method that creates a naturally rough, porous texture. This difference matters: sauces grip the pasta properly, enhancing flavor with every bite and offering a truly authentic eating experience.
- Texture isn’t the only secret. Unlike pasta dried quickly at high temperatures, our pasta undergoes a slow, low-temperature drying process, lasting up to 12 hours. This careful method preserves the wheat’s aroma, natural flavor, and nutritional value – something fast drying simply can’t achieve. The result? A pasta that holds its shape, cooks to a perfect al dente texture in just 10 minutes, and elevates every meal with its genuine Italian character.

The importance of pasta in Italy
Liguria, the Italian Riviera, a coastal region historically tied to trade, boasts many famous destinations, from the jetset Portofino to the “Five Lands” of Cinque Terre, to the port city of Genoa.
Culinary traditions are intrinsically linked to the seafaring history of the region. The cuisine is based on simple, fresh ingredients: wild herbs, Taggiasca olives, anchovies. A wide variety of regional pastas blend perfectly with the native basil pesto, the King of sauces.
