Pastificio dei Campi is located in Gragnano, an exceptional place for pasta production, where industrial development has led to the loss - partial at least - of the magic linked to the art of this white gold. Our firm aims to restore and sustain the tradition of Gragnano pasta IGP, and seeks to do this in a way that respects craftsmanship and traditional production methods, allowing the raw ingredients and stages of production all the time they need to create a pasta of the very highest quality, the best pasta ever.
Together with orecchiette and trofie, this is one of the Pastificio dei Campi shapes produced with a special machine called a baresina. It's a dried durum wheat pasta version of the traditional home-made egg pasta shape made using a comb-like tool.
