Many centuries past, a Sicilian pasta maker decided to experiment with perfecting one of the most iconic Italian pasta types: spaghetti. After toying with various interpretations of the celebrated shape, he decided to try a hollow variation. Cooking to a perfect al dente each time, and collecting sauce beautifully, Bucatini quickly became lauded throughout the country.

Bona Furtuna Ancient Grain Pasta celebrates the spirit of Italian land and tradition. Sicily’s rich climate presents ideal growing conditions for many crops, including 100% organic, non-GMO grain. Perciasacchi and Russello are sublime heirloom wheat grains that grow tall, develop strong elasticity and create an authentic al dente texture in each noodle. Using modern practices, grain is ground domestically, rinsed minimally and repeatedly milled. Next, our Italian artisan heirloom pasta is shaped in bronze dies, cut by hand, and placed on racks to air dry in the Mediterranean breeze.
