Farfalle - 500 gr

Native to Lombardy and Emilia, Farfalle take their name from the typical butterfly shape, with small narrow frills in the centre. With Farfalle the recommended condiments are delicate sauces: sauces with peas and ham, white sauces with a not too strong flavor based on salmon and cream, sauces based on delicate and soft cheeses.

The company was founded in the 1970s, after years of research and systematic studies on typical Italian food products, shapes, packaging, names and communication systems.  The company began its adventure with a small pastry shop and with a line of cantucci, new in shape and taste, but respectful of tradition and authenticity and rigorously handmade.  Soon the cantucci were joined by other high-quality artisanal products, such as pasta.  Over time the company has expanded without forgetting respect for processing methods, some of which are still entirely manual. 

The company's main objective is to safeguard the ancient Italian flavors and gastronomic traditions of the much-vaunted Mediterranean diet, while remaining at the forefront in terms of standards and certifications. Over the years, Michele Portoghese products have become synonymous with quality, authenticity and craftsmanship. Production is divided into three segments: Sweet Line, Savory Line and Pasta.
