Mezze maniche from durum wheat semolina from Gragnano

The Wolf Eyes pasta from the Gragnano Mill is a typical pasta shape reintroduced by the Gragnano Mill in its classic durum wheat semolina version. 

It is a short straight-cut pasta. It is called that way because, when viewed crosswise, it resembles the eye of a wolf. Probably of Neapolitan origin, the history of this shape is unknown.

Mezze maniche from durum wheat semolina from Gragnano: How is it produced

The production of Occhi di Lupo di Gragnano is very simple. The pasta factory Il Mulino di Gragnano selects the best wheat from Puglia and uses only pure water from Mount Faito.

An essential tool is the bronze die, which ensures the porosity of the occhi di lupo, an indispensable characteristic to enhance the flavors of the dish. The drying process, slow and at low temperatures, preserves the characteristics of the wheat, guaranteeing the occhi di lupo aroma, flavor, and cooking consistency.

Il Mulino di Gragnano, Campania

The Mulino di Gragnano was born from the meeting of five young people who, after getting to know each other at the Parish of San Leone in Gragnano, decided to bet on one of the cornerstone products of their town: the pasta of Gragnano. Go to the page of Il Mulino di Gragnano
