Russello flour is perfect for making bread and fresh pasta, not coincidentally, it was with this flour that the traditional hard dough bread of the Ragusa area was made, a fragrant, easily digestible bread that can last several days with a delicate herbal aroma.

Pastificio Minardo was founded in 2007 as a small artisanal workshop, with an organic focus and the aim of producing pasta made from Ancient Grains processed purely, cultivated and processed entirely in Sicily without the use of harmful substances.
The choice to use exclusively Ancient Grains, which are not well suited to intensive farming, is driven not only by the desire to recover a nearly lost tradition, but also by the need to produce superior quality pasta, with low gluten content, highly digestible and rich in valuable nutrients.

Russello is a durum wheat easily recognised by its tall, bright red ears. It is a variety particularly common in the Iblei area and, despite a lower yield compared to other types of wheat, it is now quite sought after for its high energy and nutritional values and because its flour is easily digestible thanks to a reduced gluten index.
