Khorasan is an ancient variety of durum wheat, which was discovered thousands of years ago in the area spanning between Egypt and Mesopotamia. It features a distinctive and unmistakeable flavour which is pleasantly sweet and gives off a nutty aroma. The dough for Alce Nero organic Khorasan wheat spaghetti is made with spring water from the Dolomites, while the extrusion process through bronze dies was chosen to increase hold and intensify its ability to soak up sauces. Excellent with any kind of sauce, Alce Nero pasta is especially good with vegetable sauces.
