As many of you know, I am a stickler for pasta quality. Go through the blog now and see just how many pasta recipes I've developed if you're not sure.
I grew up watching my Italian grandmother hand rolling her pasta on the kitchen table. The sheets were paper thin, and the pasta was magnificent. So when Paul Santillie of Pasta Mama's sent me a box of his eye-catching dried pasta, I must admit that I was dubious. I hand roll fresh pasta more frequently than I reach for the dried stuff. That being said, we here at Veronica Foods have learned to keep an open mind, when receiving samples of new products. You never know when you're in for a surprise.
Needless to say, after testing out dozens of Paul & Diane's amazing pastas, I was a convert. My family, aka my guinea pigs, had also fallen deeply in love with the vibrant flavors and distinct fresh-like texture of Pasta Mama's artisan line. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that we've been approached by dozens upon dozens of pasta manufacturers over the years looking for such an endorsement. However, it's not been until now that we felt a dried pasta worthy of such praise.
A wide variety of Pasta Mama's pastas are sold at D'Olivo. Come in or shop online for your favorite pasta flavor and sauces.
