Product reference and format
The commercial name identifies Checco il Pastaio. The current supply description specifies 1.5 kg trays and a 3 kg case made of two trays, suitable for professional planning.
Organoleptic profile
The pasta has a naturally sweet pumpkin profile supported by savoury cheese and herbs. Carrot concentrate gives the dough a warm colour, while the filling remains soft and rustic.
