Organic Wholegrain Einkorn Tubetti

Made from 100% British-grown organic einkorn wheat, our Tubetti celebrate one of the oldest cultivated varieties of wheat, transformed into artisan dry pasta in our Hertfordshire pastificio.

Einkorn (Triticum monococcum) has a distinctive golden colour and a wonderfully complex, delicate flavour. We find notes of honey, honeycomb, chamomile, vanilla, cinnamon and white chocolate in its aroma and taste.

Our einkorn is stoneground into wholegrain flour by Gilchesters Organics, retaining the bran, germ and endosperm. We then extrude the dough through bronze dies and slowly dry the pasta for at least 36 hours at temperatures not exceeding 47°C.

Tubetti means "little tubes" in Italian. This small, versatile pasta shape is particularly suited to soups, broths, minestrone and traditional dishes such as pasta e fagioli and pasta e ceci. The hollow centre helps hold the flavours of the broth or sauce, while the wholegrain einkorn contributes its distinctive character.
