Orecchiette from Benedetto Cavalieri are made using a processing method defined by the company as delicato due to the long mixing and pressing process, slow bronze extrusion and drying at a low temperature. All these aspects guarantee that the pasta keeps all the nutritional values and the best flavor of the Italian Durum Wheat.
